One scaling inclines
A hill climber is someone who ascends hills, whether for exercise, recreation, or sport.
In computing and optimization, a hill climber is an algorithm that iteratively improves a solution by making small changes, moving toward better results like someone ascending a slope—though it can get stuck at local peaks rather than finding the global optimum.
