Trial and error is what science and technology is all about. It is frequently called experimentation. It is usually goal orientated. It can be used to learn something, to make something better, to see how something works, etc. We all use it at some point in our lives. When the results of trial and error are universal enough it is called science. We as conscious beings want to simplify and organize the information we get from our experiences, so we take our experiences and try to order them into some sort of predictive and explanatory system. The process of trial and error can be made better with the process of trial and error. Each type of experimentation is a perfected form of trial and error.
