The so-called Halting Problem deals with the theoretical limits of computation.
Our source describes the undecidable problem of determining whether an arbitrary computer program will finish running or run forever. The article details Turing's proof of this undecidability, showing that no general algorithm can solve the problem for all program-input pairs. It then explores the history of the problem, its formalization, and its implications for computability theory, including connections to Gödel's incompleteness theorems. Finally, it discusses generalizations and related concepts.
