The Relationship Between Well-Defined and Algorithmic Problems

There is a relationship between something being well-defined and algorithmic. For many of you, that should be a well-defined problem. But most of your problems are ill-defined - they don't know what the relevant information about the initial state is. What's actually missing in an ill-defined problem is how to formulate the problem. How to zero in on the relevant information and thereby constrain the problem so you can solve it. Good problem formulation involves again this process of zeroing in on relevant information,.
