computing machine: the forerunner of all modern computers. At the time, only a handful people in the world could assess Turing’s paper. One of them, Alonzo Church, was based at the Institute of Advanced Mathematics in the USA on the Princeton University campus, next door to the Institute for Advanced Study that

a Halting procedure. A Universal Turing Machine is a relatively small program. Roger Penrose gives a three-page example in The Emperors New Mind, and Stephen Wolfram has implemented one using a cellular automaton with as few as five component parts. A Halting Program running on such a machine should be able to co
