    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computerized_adaptive_testing

    CAT successively selects questions for the purpose of maximizing the precision of the exam based on what is known about the examinee from previous questions. [2] From the examinee's perspective, the difficulty of the exam seems to tailor itself to their level of ability.

  3. Recursion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursion

    A simple base case (or cases) — a terminating scenario that does not use recursion to produce an answer; A recursive step — a set of rules that reduces all successive cases toward the base case. For example, the following is a recursive definition of a person's ancestor. One's ancestor is either: One's parent (base case), or

    Rule 110 - most questions involving "can property X appear later" are undecidable. The problem of determining whether a quantum mechanical system has a spectral gap. [9] [10] Finding the capacity of an information-stable finite state machine channel. [11] In network coding, determining whether a network is solvable. [12] [13]

There will be a maximum score of 198 marks and 66 total questions in the CAT exam pattern.

  6. Recursion (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursion_(computer_science)

    A common algorithm design tactic is to divide a problem into sub-problems of the same type as the original, solve those sub-problems, and combine the results. This is often referred to as the divide-and-conquer method; when combined with a lookup table that stores the results of previously solved sub-problems (to avoid solving them repeatedly and incurring extra computation time), it can be ...

  7. RE (complexity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RE_(complexity)

    The set of recursive languages is a subset of both RE and co-RE. [3] In fact, it is the intersection of those two classes, because we can decide any problem for which there exists a recogniser and also a co-recogniser by simply interleaving them until one obtains a result.

  8. First-order logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-order_logic

    It used to be standard practice to use a fixed, infinite set of non-logical symbols for all purposes: For every integer n ≥ 0, there is a collection of n-ary, or n-place, predicate symbols. Because they represent relations between n elements, they are also called relation symbols. For each arity n, there is an infinite supply of them:

  9. Computability theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computability_theory

    The set-existence axioms in question correspond informally to axioms saying that the powerset of the natural numbers is closed under various reducibility notions. The weakest such axiom studied in reverse mathematics is recursive comprehension, which states that the powerset of the naturals is closed under Turing reducibility.
