lf and if the barber does not shave himself, then the barber must shave himself. You might think this paradox an oddity 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 l

eoretical footing. In the late 19" century, most mathematicians thought infinity was a curious idea with no proper place in mathematics. They treated Cantor's attempts to make it into a real mathematical object with contempt. This affected Cantor’s morale and caused him to suffer several bouts of deep dep

ou try it on your computer, you will get the not terribly useful, #DIV/0! Error. That’s progress I guess! Zero had been tamed. What about infinity? Cantor showed that while you could think of infinity as a number, it might not be just one number. He proposed there are many infinities. In fact, there are

So to pass the time my mother suggested I read Bertrand Russell's, The History of Western Philosophy. | think she figured I had plenty of time, so picked a thick book. This nearly 800-page tome charts the entire his

n't have to worry about turning the page or working in two dimensions. If you are worried that a tape is less powerful than a sheet of paper remember Cantor’s theorem: an infinite plane is the same as an infinite line. The use of a tape massively simplified the mathematics, and subsequently many early com
