Abstract: A computerized learning machine for implementing adaptive problem solving includes an information processing device, a storage device, an output device and an input device. The adaptive problem solving method is implemented by: a) retrieving from the storage device a first question; b) outputting to the output device the first question; c) receiving from the input device an answer from the user; d) assigning a fuzzy logic coefficient to the answer; e) accessing from the storage device a learning route authority to determine the identity of a second question, the determination being dependent on the fuzzy logic coefficient; and f) repeating steps a) to e) for the second question.
