decision problem
(redirected from Undecidable language)decision problem
(theory)A problem with a yes/no answer. Determining whether
some potential solution to a question is actually a solution
or not. E.g. "Is 43669" a prime number?". This is in
contrast to a "search problem" which must find a solution
from scratch, e.g. "What is the millionth prime number?".
