define "pre programming"? is a cat not pre-programmed to prey, mate, etc?

also, by some of these definitions, sounds like my roomba approaches natural intelligence.

I doubt it is encoded much other than a set of few needs you need to fulfill. Keep in mind kittens pretty much suck at walking, balancing, but learn it eventually.

They are not pre-programmed to fight no more they are pre-programmed to open doors.

As for roomba, depends if you caught it fighting or mating with other roomba's ;)
