A homework assignment in Scott Aaronson's "PHYS771 Lecture 3: Gödel, Turing, and Friends" (see links) asks if 1/BB(1) + 1/BB(2) + 1/BB(3) + ... is a computable real number. Scott Aaronson's "PHYS771 Lecture 4: Minds and Machines" (see links), which provides the answers to the homework assignment, proves that the number is not computable.
