hi, thank you Mr. Jim,one more query, regarding Godel's incompleteness theorom. with reference to http://www.miskatonic.org/godel.html " Gödel asks for the program and the circuit design of the UTM. The program may be complicated, but it can only be finitely long. Call the program P(UTM) for Pr

Turing thesis

2002-08-10 Thread gfgs pedo
hi, Here is an example illustrating turing thesis { Suppose we make a conjecture that a turing machine is equal to the power of a typical digital computer?how can we defend or refute sucha hypotheis? to defend it we could take an increasingly more difficult and show that they are solvable
