Trial and error is a fundamental method of problem solving. It is characterized by repeated, varied attempts which are continued until success, or until the agent stops trying.

One of the greatest inventors with 1093 patents was Thomas Alva Edison (TAE). One of his most famous sayings is usually quoted as: "Genius is 5% inspiration and 95% perspiration." Edison and his assistants would try, for example, 500 ways to invent something and when not successful, they would try another 500 ways. When an experiment was not successful, he was happy to admit that he now knew the things that did not work. Trial and error was Edison's most successful means of invention. Most today believe Edison did not follow a scientific theory to invent but invented by Trial And Error (TAE).
