They replaced this method with an air-operated screwdriver and a fixture to hold bracket and mirror, thus free the worker's hands. Result: production tripled, Chrysler saved $9,000 yearly, and the worker raised his incentive pay while reducing his physical labor...

...only in terms of another. Set A, for instance may have no regularity of its own, but if it contains just those integers whose squares are in Set B, it can be considered recursive in B. A recursively enumerable set is one which can be produced by a specific method, e.g., by squaring any integer to infinity, but which may or may not be recursive. Friedberg's problem was to find a recursively enumerable set which is not recursive, but in which some other recursively enumerable set is also not recursive...
