OK. Any in mind?
So, being just Turing-complete can't serve as a criterion.
Then what can?
BTW: Older versions of Mac OS (or just "System 7" --- maybe even back
with System 6 --- at the time) shipped with an icon[0] that when double
clicked gave instructions and practice using the mouse. It had, as well
as instruction on the proper way to hold the mouse, etc., various
interactive activities. Was this thing a computer program, or was it
documentation? Or both?
[0] I'm using the word to avoid biasing the question one way or the
other.
