Exploring RANDOMNESS

Summary: A message from the author
Review: Hello, I'm Gregory Chaitin and I'm the author of
Exploring RANDOMNESS, which is my attempt to explain
the technical heart of my theory of algorithmic
information as understandably as possible. To make
my theory more concrete, I've converted it into a
theory of the size in bits of real computer programs,
programs that you can actually run. See also my
new book, "Conversations with a Mathematician: Math,
Art, Science and the Limits of Reason", which is a
collection of my most wide-ranging and non-technical
lectures and interviews.---Gregory Chaitin, IBM Research
