In computational complexity theory, R is the class of decision problems solvable by a Turing machine, which is the set of all recursive languages (also called decidable languages). Equivalent formulations R is equivalent to the set of all total computable functions in the sense that: a decision problem is in R if and only if its indicator function is computable, a total function is computable if and only if its graph is in R. Relationship with other classes Since we can decide any problem for which there exists a recogniser and also a co-recogniser by simply interleaving them until one obtains a result, the class is equal to RE ∩ co-RE.
