Describe in detail what a Turing machine includes.
Fill in the blank(s) with the appropriate word(s).
A Turing machine includes a (conceptual) tape that extends infinitely in both directions. The tape is divided into cells, each of which contains one symbol. The symbols must come from a finite set of symbols called the tape alphabet. The alphabet for a given Turing machine always contains a special symbol b (for "blank"), usually both of the symbols 0 and 1 (zero and one), and sometimes a limited number of other symbols, (say, X and Y), used as placeholders or markers of some kind. At any point in time, only a finite number of the cells contain nonblank symbols.The tape is used to hold the input to the Turing machine. We know that input must be presented to a computing agent in a form it can understand; for a Turing machine, this means that the input must be expressed as a finite string of nonblank symbols from the alphabet. The Turing machine writes its output on the tape, again using the same alphabet of symbols. The tape also serves as memory.The rest of the Turing machine consists of a unit that reads one cell of the tape at a time and writes a symbol in that cell. There is a finite number k of "states" of the machine, labeled 1, 2, … , k, and at any moment, the unit is in one of these states. A state can be thought of as a certain condition; the Turing machine may reach this condition partly on the basis of its history of events, much as your "hungry state" is a condition reached because of the meals you have skipped recently.
