It takes the sun to the ground, and violet on the observer’s eye.
Simon writes: This amazing sentence is generated by a Markov Text-Generation Algorithm. What is a Markov Algorithm? Simply put, it generates the rules from a source text, and it generates … Continue reading It takes the sun to the ground, and violet on the observer’s eye.
Ackermann Function
Simon solving the Ackermann function (a function that cannot be de-recursed). It’s computable but the computer’s soon runs out of its computing power (see the last line of code below):
