wizard
Robed magic practitioner
A wizard is a person with magical powers, especially a man who practices sorcery in fantasy and folklore: The wizard cast a powerful spell.
By extension, wizard describes someone with exceptional skill in a particular area: a financial wizard, a wizard with computers.
In software, a wizard is a step-by-step guide that walks users through a complex process.
British slang uses wizard as an adjective meaning excellent, though this sounds dated: That's wizard!
