Dec 3, 2014 at 3:57 | comment | added | Fraïssé | Very intriguing answer, but can you provide a simple example on what a problem may be phrase as, and what a string looks like? I'm still not comfortable with a problem taking in a string, is a problem in this case the same as a function and string the same as the argument? | |
