The Church – Turing thesis states that this is a law of mathematics — that a universal Turing machine can, in principle, perform any calculation that any other programmable computer can.

These functions can be calculated by rote computation, but they are not enough to make a universal computer, because the instructions which compute them do not allow for an infinite loop.

Gödel's completeness theorem of 1930 implicitly contains a definition of a universal computer, because the logical rules acting on some axioms of arithmetic will eventually prove as a theorem the result of any computation.

Each scene is shot straight through, as had been the universal custom, from a camera fixed in a single position, but in the outdoor scenes, especially in the capture and destruction of the outlaws, Porter's camera position breaks, necessarily, with the camera position standard until then, which had been, roughly, that of a spectator in a center orchestra seat at a play.

Each system develops differently, according to the area it serves, but the universal goal is to pool the resources of a given area for maximum efficiency.

In modern English, " Americans " generally refers to residents of the United States, and among native speakers of English this usage is almost universal, with any other use of the term requiring specification of the subject under discussion.

* Extent of the atonement – Arminians, along with four-point Calvinists or Amyraldians, hold to a universal drawing and universal extent of atonement instead of the Calvinist doctrine that the drawing and atonement is limited in extent to the elect only, which many Calvinists prefer to call ' particular redemption '.

Both sides ( with the exception of hyper-Calvinists ) believe the invitation of the gospel is universal and " must be presented to everyone can reach without any distinction.

Though their holding-power-to-weight ratio is significantly lower than admiralty pattern anchors, their ease of handling and stowage aboard large ships led to almost universal adoption.

where < big ></ big > is the number of degrees of freedom divided by two, R is the universal gas constant and n is the number of moles in the system ( a constant ).

One of these was the property, an essential universal true of the species, but not in the definition ( in modern terms, some examples would be grammatical language, a property of man, or a spectral pattern characteristic of an element, both of which are defined in other ways ).

Such a pair of adjoint functors typically arises from a construction defined by a universal property ; this can be seen as a more abstract and powerful view on universal properties.

The inverse limit can be defined abstractly in an arbitrary category by means of a universal property.

" Musicologist Jean-Jacques Nattiez summarizes the relativist, post-modern viewpoint: " The border between music and noise is always culturally defined — which implies that, even within a single society, this border does not always pass through the same place ; in short, there is rarely a consensus ... By all accounts there is no single and intercultural universal concept defining what music might be.

Rather, as discussed by John Keegan in his History of Warfare, war is a universal phenomenon whose form and scope is defined by the society that wages it.

An algebraic structure which can be defined by identities is called a variety, and these are sufficiently important that some authors consider varieties the only object of study in universal algebra, while others consider them an object.

A more fundamental restriction is that universal algebra cannot study the class of fields, because there is no type in which all field laws can be written as equations ( inverses of elements are defined for all non-zero elements in a field, so inversion cannot simply be added to the type ).

One advantage of this restriction is that the structures studied in universal algebra can be defined in any category which has finite products.
