About this video
The 8-bit breadboard computer is certainly limited. But is it capable enough to even be a computer? In this video we explore how Turing Machines and the Lambda Calculus defined the whole class of "computable problems." And we talk about the relatively minor change needed to make the 8-bit breadboard computer Turing complete.
