Computable function
Computable functions are the basic objects of study in computability theory. Informally, a function is computable if there is an algorithm that computes the value of the function for every value of its argument. Because of the lack of a precise definition of the concept of algorithm, every formal definition of computability must refer to a specific model of computation.
Computable function - Wikipedia Jump to content From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Mathematical function that can be computed by a program Computable functions are the basic objects of study in computability theory . Informally, a function is computable if there is an algorithm that computes the value of the function for every value of its argument. Because of the lack of a precise definition of the concept of algorithm, every formal definition of computability must refer to a specific model of computation . Many such models of computation have been proposed, the major ones being Turing mac
