From 555a4e2a70fb482f34c4931f73292a9d6ccec19f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Edwin Groothuis Date: Tue, 21 Jan 2003 01:22:23 +0000 Subject: New port: games/gturing - A simple Turing machine for gnome2 Gturing is a simple turing machine simulator with graphical interface. A Turing machine is the simplest possible computing device which can only perform very simple operations. However, almost everything in programming languages can be written as a program for the Turing machine. It's a nice complement for students who likes to practice with theory and a nice toy to play with.
