  • computability theory — (mathematics)   The area of theoretical computer science concerning what problems can be solved by any computer.

Unfortunately, by definition, there isn't an easy way of describing any of them! In fact, there are many tasks (not just calculating real numbers) that computers cannot perform. The most well-known is the halting problem, the busy beaver problem is less famous but just as fascinating.
