Searching is the process of finding a sequence of

Example:
The agent can calculate that the action Right will cause
it to be in one of the states {2,4,6,8}.
INITIAL STATE
GOAL STATE

Path cost:
A path cost function is a function that assigns a cost to
a path.
The cost of a path is the sum of the costs of the
individual actions along the path.
The path cost function is often denoted by g.
“The initial state, operator set, goal test, and path cost
function define a problem.”
Naturally, we can then define a datatype with which to
represent problems:
