Summary
Last time we saw some models for computation, and saw in turn how limited they were. Now, we open Pandrora’s hard drive: Definition: A Turing machine is a tuple $ (S, \Gamma, \Sigma, s_0, F, \tau)$, where $ S$ is a set of states, $ \Gamma$ is a set of tape symbols, including a special blank symbol $ b$, $ \Sigma \subset \Gamma$ is a set of input symbols, not including $ b$, $ s_0$ is the initial state, $ A \subset S$ is a set of accepting states, $ R \subset S$ is a set of rejecting states, $ \t...
