Do you use a quick trial method when solving unfamiliar problems?

The brute force method is often used in the initial stages of solving unfamiliar problems, especially when there is no obvious algorithm. It helps to understand the structure of the problem, test hypotheses, and obtain a working solution, even if not optimal.

In frontend development, it might look like this:

• Enumerating all possible UI states to identify bugs.
• Trying different approaches to layout or logic.

However, it is important not to get stuck on this method, but after obtaining a basic result, to look for optimizations and more elegant solutions. Brute force is a tool for exploration, not a final solution.

Example: if you need to find a suitable shade of color from a set, you can try all options and choose the best according to criteria, then optimize the choice using smarter algorithms or heuristics.
