The Halting Problem and Decidability

The Halting Problem and Decidability. How powerful is a TM? Any program in a high level language can be simulated by a TM. Any algorithmic procedure carried out by a human or a computer can be carried out by a TM. “Algorithm” is an informal notion – but we have identified it with a TM.
