This app is a Turing Machine Simulator.
Students of computer science and maths are probably familar with Turing Machines, because the Turing Machine is one of the important models when analyzing if mathematical problems or algorithms are computable.
Usually dealing with Turing machines requires paper and pencil for simulating the program execution. This app will help here by providing several ways to execute Turing programs and analyze it in an easy and comfortable way.
You can write new programs for the Turing Machine, execute them and analyze the execution even step by step. It's also possible to change the speed of the execution.
It's possible to export and import Turing programs using email, so you can backup you programs by sending it by email to yourself, or share the programs with your friends by sending them the programs by email. Opening a hyperlink in these emails on an iPhone or iPod Touch will automatically import the Turing program in this application (in case it is installed on the device).
The app comes with some example Turing programs to play with.
Fixes a bug which could cause a crash after reseting a turing program. This could happen only when a turing program has written something on a tape (which is infinite on both sides) to the left of the starting position.
