WHAT DOES HEURISTICALLY MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Heuristic

Heuristic refers to experience-based techniques for problem solving, learning, and discovery that give a solution which is not guaranteed to be optimal. Where the exhaustive search is impractical, heuristic methods are used to speed up the process of finding a satisfactory solution via mental shortcuts to ease the cognitive load of making a decision. Examples of this method include using a rule of thumb, an educated guess, an intuitive judgment, stereotyping, or common sense. In more precise terms, heuristics are strategies using readily accessible, though loosely applicable, information to control problem solving in human beings and machines.

Definition of heuristically in the English dictionary

The definition of heuristically in the dictionary is by exploring possibilities rather than by following set rules. Other definition of heuristically is using a rule of thumb for solving a problem without the exhaustive application of an algorithm.
