2. Computational problem - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_problem

   Computational problem. In theoretical computer science, a computational problem is a problem that may be solved by an algorithm. For example, the problem of factoring. "Given a positive integer n, find a nontrivial prime factor of n ." is a computational problem. A computational problem can be viewed as a set of instances or cases together with ...

3. Solver - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solver

   Solver. A solver is a piece of mathematical software, possibly in the form of a stand-alone computer program or as a software library, that 'solves' a mathematical problem. A solver takes problem descriptions in some sort of generic form and calculates their solution. In a solver, the emphasis is on creating a program or library that can easily ...

4. Boolean satisfiability problem - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boolean_satisfiability_problem

   The Boolean satisfiability problem (SAT) is, given a formula, to check whether it is satisfiable. This decision problem is of central importance in many areas of computer science, including theoretical computer science, complexity theory, [3] [4] algorithmics, cryptography [5] [6] and artificial intelligence. [7] [additional citation (s) needed]

5. Computational thinking - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_thinking

   Computational thinking. Computational thinking ( CT) refers to the thought processes involved in formulating problems so their solutions can be represented as computational steps and algorithms. [1] In education, CT is a set of problem-solving methods that involve expressing problems and their solutions in ways that a computer could also ...

6. Problem set - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Problem_set

   A problem set, sometimes shortened as pset, [1] is a teaching tool used by many universities. Most courses in physics, math, engineering, chemistry, and computer science will give problem sets on a regular basis. [2] They can also appear in other subjects, such as economics . It is essentially a list of several mildly difficult problems or ...

7. Stanford Research Institute Problem Solver - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanford_Research...

   The Stanford Research Institute Problem Solver, known by its acronym STRIPS, is an automated planner developed by Richard Fikes and Nils Nilsson in 1971 at SRI International. [1] The same name was later used to refer to the formal language of the inputs to this planner. This language is the base for most of the languages for expressing ...

8. Recursion (computer science) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursion_(computer_science)

   In computer science, recursion is a method of solving a computational problem where the solution depends on solutions to smaller instances of the same problem. [1] [2] Recursion solves such recursive problems by using functions that call themselves from within their own code. The approach can be applied to many types of problems, and recursion ...

9. Halting problem - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halting_problem

   In computability theory, the halting problem is the problem of determining, from a description of an arbitrary computer program and an input, whether the program will finish running, or continue to run forever. The halting problem is undecidable, meaning that no general algorithm exists that solves the halting problem for all possible program ...
