Finally.
Heuristics is not most cases mate, get that through that thick skull of yours. Heuristic is about solving a problem, the problem in this case being "which of these fractions represents the largest number?".
Jesus fucking Christ on a toast!
I believe that's the jist of it. Heuristic is a way to get a roughly correct answer to a specific problem. If it doesn't provide a response that stays in the same ballpark of the real solution to the problem it's not heuristic, it's just a wrong train of thought.
You seem to be ignoring the problem solving part. If it doesn't provide a response in the ballpark of the true solution it is not heuristic, it's just wrong line of thought.
Yes, I disagree that looking at a fraction and thinking "bigger number = larger number" is heuristic. It's just really extremely dumb and I can't even.
That's it. There's no argument, although you seem to think there is.
Like the article says in the first sentence, heuristics "is any approach to problem solving that employs a pragmatic method". Looking at fractions and assuming that the big number is larger is not a pragmatic method, it's a completely smoothbrain approach. I can't even comprehend how you think that's a good approach to fractions. It's just flummoxing.
heuristics of assuming that larger digits means larger number
That's not heuristics, it's mental laziness or smoothbrain. You shouldn't say you have a good education in math and then say that...
they were at least reputable with standards
I think you must be talking about a different website?
