A software wizard or setup assistant is a user interface type that presents a end user computer science user with a sequence of dialog box es that lead the user through a series of well defined steps. Tasks that are complex, infrequently performed, or unfamiliar may be easier to perform using a wizard. In contrast, an expert system guides a user through a series of usually yes no questions to solve a problem. By 2001, wizards had become commonplace in most consumer oriented operating systems, although not always under the name wizard . In Mac OS X , for example, they are called assistants some examples include the Setup Assistant , which is run at initial bootup of the Apple Macintosh Macintosh , and the Network Setup Assistant , which has a similar function to the MS Windows New Connection Wizard . GNOME refers to its wizards as assistants . Many web application s, for instance online booking sites, make use of the wizard paradigm to complete lengthy interactive processes, sometimes becoming similar to automated online assistant s.
