3.0 ANALYSIS, DISCUSSION AND INTERPRETATION: **The procedure discussed in** HILL-DOES has been implemented in Java. The user supplies the details of the equation like number of variables involved, coefficients, powers and the value of N. **The experimental results** 
have been analyzed and discussed in the following sections. 

3.1 Nodes Generated: **Figure 2 shows the nodes generated by HILL-DOES for an elementary** 
equation x 1 2 **+ x** 2 2 **= 149, before finding the first solution (10,4). The process generated 68** 
nodes during the search process. The figure shows the steady search of the process in the search space. Figure 3 demonstrates the convergence of heuristic function values of the nodes generated in the same demonstration. Initially, there is a sudden reduction of heuristic function values and once the process becomes mature, there is a directed approach towards the value zero, finally resulting in the solution.
