Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Turing machine to compute the truncated subtraction ("monus"), after John E. Hopcroft and Jeffrey D. Ullman (1979) Introduction to Automata Theory, Languages, and Computation, Reading/MA: Addison-Wesley ISBN: 0-201-02988-X. Example 7.2, page 151-153. To enhance understandibility, Hopcroft's and Ullman's input symbols "0", "1", and "B" (blank symbol) have been renamed to "I", "#", and "_", repectively; likewise, their states "q0", ..., "q6" have been renamed to "a", ..., "g".


The machine is depicted in its start state, "a", and with its head in its start position on a tape representing the pair 5,3 in the unary numeral system.
According to the book, in a computation of "mn", the intuitive meaning of the states is:
a: Begin, replace the leading "I" by "_".
b: Search right, looking for the first "#".
c: Search right past "#"s until encountering an "I", change that "I" to "#".
d: Move left to a "_", then enter state "a" again to repeat the cycle.
e: In state "c", a "_" was encountered before an "I", each "I" of n was changed to "#", and n+1 "I"s of m were changed to "_". Now change all "#"s to "_"s until encountering a "_", change this "_" back to "I", and enter the stop state "g".
f: In state "a", a "#" was encountered instead of an "I", that is mn, and each "I" of m was already changed to "_". Now erase the rest of the tape, and enter the stop state "g".
g: Stop state. The computation is finished, the tape contains mn in unary notation, no further state changes are possible.
