Your own Turing machine

The mathematical basis of computer science

The mathematical basis of computer science, and trying to include the real world

Or if you are willing to concede that there is a real world with independent input state outside your machine and that also might affected by your machine's output, then $(s_{t+1},o_{t+1}) = m(s_t,i_t)$

The mathematical basis of computer science, and a hypothetical world function?

Since this is the real world, the relationship between $i_{t+1}$ and $o_{t+1}$ is not a given in the general case...

The mathematical basis of computer science, and a hypothetical world function?

Each world defines its own relationship between the two. So maybe we should create a $w$ function...?
