friends. Logical Beginnings The formal study of logic began in 3848c with the publication ofa treatise called the Organon by the Greek philosopher Aristotle. A student of Plato, Aristotle taught many of the famous leaders of his time, including Alexander The Great. Ancient Greece was not some idyllic thin

but, using this simple idea, Bertrand Russell changed the course of mathematical history and it is the fundamental paradox used to show computers are Turing limited. The Russell Paradox In the late 19 century, mathematicians began to think about the nature of numbers. What is a number? It is certainly

an when he was 60 years old. He’d had an astonishing life until then, of course. He’d been taught by Socrates and, in turn, had sharpened the mind of Aristotle. He’d established his famous Academy in Athens. The puzzles of philosophy and politics that defined his city’s most turbulent era had been the work o

Buried in the very premise of Turing’s test was an assumption about what machines could do, and how they might do it. “The idea behind digital computers may be explained by saying that t
