Question
Chapter 12.2, Problem 1QE
Program Plan Intro
Turing machine:
- Turing machine is used as a tool to understand the power of
algorithmic processes. - It consists of a control unit which is used to read and write symbols on a tape.
- A tape is divided into cells and each cell has one of finite sets of symbols.
