Question 1

Design a transition function δ for a Turing Machine that accepts strings consisting of even number of zeros. Include transitions between states.

💡 Hint: Think about what zero-symmetry looks like.

Question 2

Suppose a non-deterministic Turing Machine has the following δ function setup. Can you describe how it would operate differently than a deterministic one?

💡 Hint: Visualize how journeying down multiple paths can speed up solutions.
