Talk:P''

From Esolang

I was unsure how to categorise this page on Bohm's language P", and hope someone will remedy that.

Given that it's described as "describing a proper subfamily of Turing machines" - and that there's no indication that it was ever intended to be implemented or otherwise used as anything except a formalism - I would guess that Category: Computational models is probably the place for it. --Chris Pressey 18:29, 16 Jul 2005 (GMT)

[edit] Formatting

Is everyone else seeing the name of this language as horrendously formatted as I do? (I.e. P′′ with the prime marks far apart.) Perhaps we should change back to apostrophes, even if it isn't technically correct? --Ørjan 22:58, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Not sure what you're seeing -- it looks fine to me. --r.e.s. (Talk) 06:21, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

I tried to make a redirect that would send P-prime-prime to this page, but it doesn't seem to work. (I think spelling it out as P-prime-prime is the best, because it's both easy to remember and avoids special characters or any characters that confuse the Wiki.) Anyone able to make the redirect work? --r.e.s. (Talk) 13:03, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Me neither. Maybe moving P'' to P-prime-prime is better? Except I think underscores are more common than hyphens. --Ørjan 19:17, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

I finally got it to work. The title of the present article is actually P followed by two single quotes (which is natural enough on the keyboard, but unfortunately confuses the Wiki.) --r.e.s. (Talk) 20:30, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
