365 Days of Python: Day #42 — Toilsome Troubleshooting
2 min readDec 28, 2022
No one likes problems; however, everyone likes solutions.
Therefore, how does one find the solution to a problem?
A favorite problem-solving methodology among all professions is what is known as root cause analysis (RCA). Within the world of RCA, there are various tools that can be employed to identify the problem itself. By doing so, finding a viable solution becomes much more feasible.
The following are seven common tools applicable to RCA:
- Ishikawa Diagram
- Pareto Chart
- 5 Whys
- Failure Mode and Effects Analysis
- Scatter Diagram
- Affinity Diagram
- Fault Tree Analysis
It is important to remember, though, that knowing which tool to use is equally as important to knowing how to use each tool.
