could be used as an oracle, capable of answering almost any question imaginable. I could, for example, write a program that says: for every index in Fermat’s puzzle try every number and halt if you find a solution greater than 2. Now if I run my halt program on this program and it states ‘will crash; I w

ery number and halt if you find a solution greater than 2. Now if I run my halt program on this program and it states ‘will crash; I will have solved Fermat’s Last Theorem! Do you see why? If we give ‘Halt’ an input: a program we are interested in, along with some data, it will tell us if the program fin

e in a Universe where information comes into existence through the creative endeavors of human beings. When Andrew Wiles discovered his solution to Fermat’s Last Theorem, he did something a computer cannot do and demonstrated non-computational thought. But there is an alternative explanation put forward

a rigid two-dimensional surface like the earth, results in it taking the shortest route possible from its initial to final position. The related 1650 Fermat’s “principle of least time” is about light. As Feynman explains in his Lectures in Physics, “...out of all possible paths that light might take from
