Computation Theory is a discipline that uses mathematical concepts and tools to expose the inherent nature of the activity which we call "computing". Why is it harder to perform some computations than other, apparently similar, ones? Are the differences in difficulty that we observe inherent, or are they artifacts of the way we specify and perform the computations of interest? Even more basically: How does one reason about such questions?
