1. The halting problem is described as impossibility to know if a program (based on any
programming language) will halt or not after it starts running.
How would you simulate or semi-simulate the halting problem? If a simulation is possible,
provide a graph or a flow chart. Explain your reasoning.
If a simulation is not possible, explain your reasoning.
It is not possible to infer from a variable's "type" an exhaustive and exhaustive description of the variable. Every variable is one of a kind, both in terms of the information it stores and the extra qualities it has. Give an example that illustrates how this abstract notion might be put into practise to describe a variable of some type.

- Comp sciencearrow_forwardI agree with Clauderlyn that a computer cannot think. Take away the formal definition of the word, I consider it that act of formulating further thoughts by onself to cause an action or a result and/or to come to a conclusion on one's own. A computer processes information that has been effected/put in by the user and provides specific output/results based on how it is programmed.arrow_forwardIn thinking that is not monotonous, there remains a certain amount of ambiguity and unfinished business.arrow_forward
- A definition is requested for each of the following terms. Things like (a) Al, (b) an agent, (c) logic, and (d) the Turing testarrow_forwardFormal Methods are based on logic reasoning. Conceptually the two most common logics are propositional logic and Predicate Logic. An undergraduate student who took a course of discrete mathematics is inquiring as to how propositional and predicate logics can be used in software testing. You are asked to guide this student in this quest. One pointer may consist in presenting the characteristics and limitations of both logic as well as their use as a mean for software testing. Which Logic is most adequate for formal verification of software and how this should be implemented?arrow_forwardOn an island, a group of people are living until a visitor arrives with an odd directive: everyone with blue eyes must leave the island as quickly as possible. Every evening, a flight will depart at 8:00. Everyone can see the colour of everyone else's eyes, but they are blind to their own (nor is anyone allowed to tell them). They also do not know the number of persons who have blue eyes, but they do know that at least one person has them. How long will it take the folks with blue eyes to leave?arrow_forward
- Logic and reason are at the heart of formal methods. Both propositional logic and Predicate Logic are widely used in the theoretical realm. An undergraduate who has studied discrete mathematics wonders whether there is any application of propositional and predicate logics to the process of vetting software. This mission asks you to help a pupil. One such direction would be to outline the benefits and drawbacks of both logic and its use to software testing. What is the best logic to use and how should it be implemented for formal programme verification?arrow_forwardA computer game is a computer-controlled game where players interact with objects displayed on a screen for the sake of entertainment. If we want to play games on the computer, suggest ONE (1) suitable input device and ONE (1) suitable output device, include the usage explanation for each device.arrow_forwardIn this assignment, you are to write three paragraphs. Each describes the field of artificial intelligence in a professional context, but the context is different, as we now specify. One paragraph is to be directed to a professional colleague who knows very little about computing in general and AI in particular. Describe to her what a decision tree learner is and what it is intended to do. Make sure to use the language she can understand or define the required terms for her. The second paragraph is directed to a colleague who is a physician. He knows a bit more about computing than your first colleague. Explain to him what an expert system is and how it can be used in the context of medicine. Go into as much detail as you can and use relevant terms from science and computer science. The third paragraph is directed to a colleague who is a computer scientist and has a Ph.D. in AI. Explain to her the issues that you’re having implementing your expert system. Get into the technical details…arrow_forward
- Formal approaches have their roots in logical thinking. In terms of general popularity, propositional logic and predicate logic are your best bets. An undergraduate student in discrete mathematics is interested in the potential applications of propositional and predicate logics in the software testing process. This student really needs your help in finding what they are looking for. The benefits and drawbacks of logic as a tool for software testing might be outlined as one such approach. How should formal program verification be performed, and which logic is optimal for doing so?arrow_forwardA robot vacuum cleaner uses a fuzzy logic system to control the speed of the suction of the dirt on the floor based on two inputs : Amount of dirt and Position of the vacuum in the room. Suggest the linguistic variables for the inputs and the output of the system and their corresponding linguistic values. a. b. Draw the membership functions for the linguistic variables. C. Create the related fuzzy rules for the system (up to you to create how many rules). d. Use your own examples for the amount of dirt and the position in the room to show how your system can give the speed of suction of the vacuum cleaner.arrow_forwardLogic reasoning is the foundation of formal methods. Propositional logic and Predicate Logic are conceptually the two most popular logics. A discrete mathematics undergraduate student wants to know how propositional and predicate logics might be used for software testing. This student needs your assistance in his or her search. One suggestion may be to outline the strengths and weaknesses of both logic and its application as a tool for software testing. Which logic is best for formal programme verification, and how should this be done?arrow_forward
