Do i need to learn Artificial intelligence before learning Heuristics
I am planning to do one project on  Meta heuristics based on planning and scheduling.
But i have not yet studies Artificial intelligence subjects. I have studies neural networks subjects. I want to know that can i start straight with Meta Heuristics books and tutorials 
or i need to know Artificial intelligence before diving into meta heuristics
