description | The disclosed invention is a method using Yes/No answers to questions to make the most appropriate selection from a set of defined possibilities. With regard to a topic which is being analyzed, a set of possible outcomes is defined. A database of questions which bear upon these outcomes is developed and each outcome is ranked in relation to each question as to how much that question indicates that outcome. Additional weight factors may be used along with these rankings. These rankings and weights are used to calculate accumulating scores for the possible outcomes. A formula is provided to choose a balanced selection of questions initially and then shift to questions which focus on the indicated likely outcomes as the questioning progresses. The outcomes having the highest percent accumulated score to possible score are deemed indicated by the method. The process may be repeated to obtain a second most indicated outcome. |
