Abstract

We investigate flow-chart programs equipped with sets to keep intermediate results of computations. It is shown that such programs form the weakly semi-universal class, i.e. are able to distinguish finite interpretations from infinite. It is not known whether this class is semi-universal, but if we in addition equip programs with level 2 sets, the resulting class is proved to be semi-universal, i.e. every generalized computable function in every infinite interpretation can be computed by some programs of the class. Some other properties of these two classes are proved.
