I asked myself some time ago the same question (e.g. are Turing machines
computing on real numbers equvalent on ones computing only on rationals), but I
was unable to find any answer. I was especially intersted in complexity
theoretical results. Any pointers in the literature about real vs. rational vouls
be highly appreciated.
