Search-based software engineering

Search-based software engineering (SBSE) is a way of making computer programs. It uses search algorithms to find the best solution for a problem. A search algorithm is like a recipe for finding a solution. When the computer is given a problem, the search algorithm looks at all the possible solutions and finds the best one. This way, the computer can quickly and efficiently solve problems that would be too difficult or time-consuming for humans.
