Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Construct a diagram that shows the initialization phase of a Turing Machine, including all components and their interactions.

💡 Hint: Remember the roles of each component during the initialization.

Challenge 2 Hard

Design a simple Turing Machine that accepts the language L = {0n1n | n ≥ 1} and describe its transition function in detail.

💡 Hint: Think about how loops and checks are necessary for this language's recognition.
