Techniques for trial-and-error learning in complex application environments (II)

Abstract

One embodiment of a computer-implemented method for executing software application commands on practice data comprises identifying a command demonstration that is stored in a database based on a current command being interacted with in a graphical user interface, wherein the command demonstration is associated with sample application data; receiving a selection of whether to execute the command demonstration on the sample application data or current application data; causing the command demonstration to be executed on either the sample application data or a copy of current application data to generate modified data; and causing the modified data to be output within the graphical user interface.
