Does anyone have or know of a program to simulate a Turing machine? I don't need anything fancy -- just something that takes as input a starting tape and some form of table/program and outputs the tape through each state of the program... Please respond via email -- thanks muchly. [ M.P.Gerlek, Wanna-Be At Large [ Disclaimer: Yes, Mom, I'll play nice.

Microcomputer Applications sells a Turing machine simulator which supports 1,000 states and a 128k tape. It runs on a PC, XT, or AT with 512k. Price is 39.95 for Booklet and 5 1/4" disk. Example programs are included. Microcomputer Applications, P.O. Box 1583 Suisun City, Ca. 94585 (707) 422-1465 Make sure you get their catalog. It's called "John's Picks" and it's full of book recommendations, nerd coffe cups and tee-shirts, Escher stuff, neat software, etc. Think of it as the computer science equivalent of a science museum store's catalog.

I could probably dig them out eventually from an old (_not_ Turing-) tape. Lee -- Liam R. E. Quin, lee@sq.com, SoftQuad Inc., Toronto, +1 (416) 963-8337 /text/humour/quote: No such file or directory
