Cultural Definition

heuristic (wiktionary)

Adjective (comparative more heuristic, superlative most heuristic)

Relating to general strategies or methods for solving problems.

(computing, of a method or algorithm) that solves a problem more quickly but is not certain to arrive at an optimal solution.

Heuristic (Wikipedia)

experience-based techniques for problem solving, learning, and discovery that find a solution which is not guaranteed to be optimal, but good enough for a given set of goals. 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
