Build a TM using basic machines to perform the following tasks: Flip bits in the input string of 0’s and 1’s. For example, if input is 01101, the output is 10010.

Understand the Problem

The question is asking to describe the process of building a Turing machine that can flip bits in a given input string of 0's and 1's. This involves explaining the steps or states of the machine for the transformation of the input string to the output string, as illustrated in the example.

Answer

Flip each 0 to 1 and 1 to 0, then halt on a blank symbol.

To flip bits in an input string using a Turing Machine, start in the initial state, read each symbol on the tape, flip 0 to 1 and 1 to 0, moving right for each read, and halt on a blank symbol.

Answer for screen readers

To flip bits in an input string using a Turing Machine, start in the initial state, read each symbol on the tape, flip 0 to 1 and 1 to 0, moving right for each read, and halt on a blank symbol.

More Information

A Turing Machine processes input by reading and writing symbols according to a set of rules. By defining transitions for 0 and 1, the machine can systematically flip all bits in a string.

Tips

Ensure the Turing Machine's tape head moves only to the right after each flip to avoid reprocessing symbols.
