Gorman (W. M. Gorman)

W. M. Gorman was an American mathematician known for his work in logic, mathematics, and computer science. He contributed to the foundations of mathematics by exploring formal systems and algorithms, helping to clarify how mathematical truths can be systematically derived. His research often focused on the nature of computability and the limits of what machines can solve. Gorman's work is important for understanding the theoretical underpinnings of computer science, including how programs can be designed to perform logical reasoning and problem-solving within well-defined rules.
