IS313 Finishing Schedule
Monday, Dec. 6 Today! In-class project presentations
• Tuesday, Dec. 7 Intermediate progress report due with presentation slides

4:00 – 6:30 pm
• Friday, Dec. 17 Final projects due (any time)
For tomorrow…
What does this mean?
(1) Another update of your progress…
with your presentation…!
For next Friday…
A final .zip of your project...

What are one or more things you would keep about IS313 as it is?
No name!
What are one or more things you would add/change/delete about IS313?
#1a
#1b
Mark where you would judge the pace of the class material:
How would you judge this class compared to other CGU classes?
#2
#3
#4How much time did this class take, compared to other CGU classes?
Good luck with the project...
I'll be here next Mon. ...
... and beyond!
Limitations of CS!
Many potentially useful problems are impossible to compute!
• They involve infinity.
• They involve self-reference.
• Or they can be interpreted as such.
Inf checks for infinite loops.

Unsolvable problems
Many potentially useful problems are impossible to compute!
def Inf( fs, inp ): f = make_func(fs) if f(inp) runs forever: return True else: return False
• They involve infinity.
• They involve self-reference.
• Or they can be interpreted as such.
A string containing a Python function Any string
Inf checks for infinite loops.
in finite time
the iPhone's icon for Google Maps …
make_func ?
These Python strings look decidedly func-y
Let's test it!
Python creates Python!
What's this doing?
f is the function in fs
Strings and functions are one and the same…
Python runs Python!
A working Inf
Inf does exist - and does work - if given infinite time…
def Inf( fs, inp ): f = make_func(fs) if f(inp) or not f(inp): return False else: return True
A string containing a Python function Any string
This Inf checks for infinite loops.
And, to be fair, it never really returns True !
but can use infinite time!
Proof strategy
Presume that Inf exists.
def Inf( fs, inp ): f = make_func(fs) if f(inp) runs forever: return True else: return False
A string containing a Python function Any string
Inf: infinite-loop checker.
We show that this results in a contradiction…
Thus, the presumption "Inf exists" is false.
So, Inf can not exist.
Presume:
We build a new function, Cant
def Cant( fs ): if Inf(fs,fs): return 42 else: while True: print "ha!"
A string containing a Python function
Cant takes only one input, a string containing a Python function.
Inf( fs, inp ) works…
Cant stubbornly reverses the predictive power of Inf !
This name Cant be a
coincidence!
Presume: Inf( fs, inp ) works…
fs2 = """def Cant( fs ): if Inf(fs,fs): return 42 else: while True: print "ha!""""
Consider…
>>> Cant( fs2 )
We build Cant:
def Cant( fs ): if Inf(fs,fs): return 42 else: while True: print "ha!"
A string containing a Python function
Thus…
Inf( fs, inp )
can not exist…
can not be written…
can not be programmed…
Infinite-loop checking can not be done by computer.
The "Halting problem" is uncomputable.
can it be done biologically?
