If an operation can be performed by using an algorithm, this device can do it.
Its tape is divided into cells that can each hold one of a given number of symbols. It can move left or right along the tape, acting on one cell at a time. It is programmed by a set of instructions that make it change symbols, change state, and move one cell left or right. If an operation can be performed by using an algorithm, this device can do it. With an infinite memory represented by an infinitely long ribbon of paper, FTP, identify this hypothetical machine that determines whether or not a problem is computable, named after a British mathematician.
