Mar 18, 2013 at 16:43 | comment | added | Reuben | Thank you very much Joel! This gives me a great deal to read up on and learn about. Do you happen to know any good resources on computable analysis? It seems interesting, but the Wikipedia page is fairly short. I am sorry for asking Steven, but I asked my maths teacher at school and he wasn't sure so as I had asked a couple of questions before on StackOverflow and had very informative responses (as I have just had here) I thought it might be worth asking. | |
Mar 18, 2013 at 14:05 | comment | added | Steven Landsburg | I was initially appalled to see that anyone had answered this question, but I learned so much from the answer that I'm now glad it's there and hope you won't delete it. | |
