Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Using Cantor's argument, prove that the set of all functions from {1,2,3,...} to {0,1} is uncountable.

💡 Hint: Reflect on how listing elements could lead to missing at least one function.

Question 2

Discuss the implications of the Halting Problem within programming and computation limits.

💡 Hint: Consider programming tasks where it's impossible to predict behavior.
