Manipulating symbols Last class Typology of signs Sign systems Symbols Tremendously important distinctions for informatics and computational sciences Computation symbol manipulation Symbols can be manipulated without reference to content syntactically. Nick Bloom (Stanford & NBER). IMF Lectures, January 18. th. 2013. Talk summarizes a JEL draft with Fernandez-Villaverde and Schneider. Currently very scrappy and only the slides are on-line but hoping to post the paper on-line soon. Manipulating symbols. Last class. Typology of signs. Sign systems. Symbols.

Plant productivity. “The . scientist has a lot of experience with ignorance and doubt and uncertainty, and this experience is of very great importance, I think. . When . a scientist does not know the answer to a problem, he is ignorant. When he has a hunch as to what the result is, he is uncertain. And when he is pretty damn sure of what the result is going to be, he is still in some doubt. environmental research. Liew Xuan Qi (A0157765N). Cheong Hui Ping (A0127945W).
