OK, and that leads now to an interesting question, which would be, "How do I build a mechanical process to capture that set of computations?"

好，现在出现了一个有趣的问题，就是“我怎么样才能建立计算机程序,去捕捉一系列的计算呢？

Alan Turing In 1936, that same guy, Alan Turing, showed that with six simple primitives, anything that could be described in a mechanical process, it's actually algorithmically, could be programmed just using those six primitives.

在1936年，还是那个人，展示了六个基本类型，可以在计算过程中,表达出任何含义来，其实这是演算性质的，可以根据六个数字编程。

In the past, HP created inkjet print heads through a complex procedure where some parts were built using photolithography and other pieces were built using a mechanical process.

Many of the tiny metal pieces are cut with a new mechanical process that runs electric current through a hair-thin filament.

Researchers used to think of heart attacks as being the result of a simple mechanical process, the gradual clogging of the arteries with fatty gunk.
