CSC165 SLOG week 11

This week we have problems without algorithms and contradictory program. There is less content than before because of the fall break. This week’s content is a litter confusing for me; I understand some of it, but there are also some parts that I am not sure. For example, the uncomputable function sounds reasonable and I understand it, but I don’t feel like I can master it right now.  

Meanwhile, I start to work on assignment 2 since assignment always takes a long time to think. For the last question in the assignment, I don’t really know how to it because it is a new type of question to me, but it says I should emulate the technique from the course notes. Also, the proof that involves limits is new to me, I am not sure on how to use n and B in those question. So I decide to read the course note in this weekend in order to have a better understanding of those questions. 

As the term approaching to its end, it’s time to begin reviewing, though there is still lots of work from different subject to do.

I just found out Celina posted some examples from lecture with her own explanation in her slog which helps me understand computability better.

  1. The computable thing is confusing! It is hard to proving something does not exist by pretending it exists and work on it. I think it is going to take some time to digest like things used to be.
