Question 1

What does the Church-Turing Hypothesis assert?

All functions computable by a TM can also be computed by humans.
Any function computable by an algorithm can be computed by a TM.
Turing Machines are less powerful than finite automata.

💡 Hint: Consider the relationship between algorithms and computational models.

Question 2

Is every decidable language also Turing-recognizable?

True
False

💡 Hint: Think about the definitions of both language types.
