What is the goal of an optimisation algorithm?
To generate every possible solution and return them without measuring their quality.
To find the best solution according to a specific measure (e.g., shortest distance or lowest cost).
To find the first valid solution without comparing its quality against any alternatives.
To select a random solution regardless of its distance, cost, or performance.
