What’s a Turing Machine? A Turing machine is deceptively simple and, like many mathematical models, highly impractical. Leading off the inpracticalities, the machine includes an infinite paper tape.

We’ve found the first five Busy Beaver numbers, but the sixth may be bigger than the number of atoms in the universe.

Some numbers are so unimaginably large that they defy the bounds of modern mathematics, and now mathematicians are closing in ...

Here’s how it works. A Turing machine can read and alter symbols on an infinitely long tape, as dictated by a table of rules. The tape is made up of “cells,” which can each store exactly one symbol, ...

We also need rules for when the Turing machine is in an odd state, one rule for the symbol on the tape is a zero and another for when it is one. Lastly we need to define a Starting state, which we ...

One way to demonstrate that a system is Turing complete is to create a Turing machine within it, and that's just what Churchill et al. have done with their work.

A trove of forgotten papers penned by famed World War II codebreaker Alan Turing has sold for the record-setting price of ...
