单词 | Primitive Recursive Function |
释义 | Primitive Recursive FunctionFor-loops (which have a fixed iteration limit) are a special case of while-loops. A function which can be implementedusing only for-loops is called primitive recursive. (In contrast, a Computable Function can be coded using acombination of for- and while-loops, or while-loops only.) The Ackermann Function is the simplest example of a well-defined Total Function which isComputable but not primitive recursive, providing a counterexample to the belief in the early1900s that every Computable Function was also primitive recursive (Dötzel 1991). See also Ackermann Function, Computable Function, Total Function
