Lecture
Halting Problem: Unsolvable Problems
Description
This lecture discusses the concept of unsolvable problems in algorithms, focusing on the halting problem introduced by Turing. It presents a proof sketch demonstrating that there cannot be a procedure to determine if a program will halt. The lecture concludes by highlighting the limitations of algorithms in solving every problem.
