THIS PAGE IS WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The definition of supercombinator is totally wrong!!!!!!! What is very informally defined in the article refers to a combinator, without the super! The super- prefix in computer science in things like this subject, refers to actually inexistent languages, or computation systems. You may talk about Super-Turing machines, which refers to a machine capable to perform computations that Turnig machines can not perform, i.e. a super set of what a Turing machine can compute. Combinatory logic is equally powerfull than Turing machines (and Lambda calculus, recursive functions, etc.), a super combinator refers to something like a super-Turing machine.

I am not going to fix this article, because I had a very bad experience with OTHER pages, monopolized by ignorants which react to corrections thinking they know everything because it is in their high school notes. I do not have time to earn privileges to monopolize wikipedia and active alarms to be aware of every change, having no other thing to do than revert every change.

If someone wants to take the risk of fixing this page. It should contain a story of the intents to create super-combinators which is related to super-Turing machines super-recursion, etc. There are some intents published but all are wrong, got it? Good luck! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.178.40.254 (talk) 04:17, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
