What is computer theory? What does it talk about? What is it's purpose?

Quote from Wikipedia:

The theory of computation is the branch of computer science that deals with whether and how efficiently problems can be solved on a computer. The field is divided into two major branches: computability theory and complexity theory, but both branches deal with formal models of computation.

We all had to learn some time. There was a time when you did not know. Now my time has come to learn what it is. Thanks for the link. I don't know why i didn't think of going there myself?

I still do not know - that's my curse.

Thanks for the link.

You're welcome - that's why we are here. To help each other gaining knowledge and wisdom.

I don't know why i didn't think of going there myself?

memorize for the future - first try to find the answer by yourself. if this try fails then ask in a forum. This way is much better...

 

[Marks256]

Yes, will do. I will try to do a little more research on it when i get time. Thanks again!

It's one of the American states. If I put Alberta I don't expect people to know where I am from...
