g’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 housed Einstein. Turing travelled to America in 1937 and completed his doctoral thesis at Princeton. He might have stayed, but Europe was heatin

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
