turing-music

Plays music generated by Turing machines with 5 states and 2 symbols

This package is not currently in any snapshots. If you're interested in using it, we recommend adding it to Stackage Nightly. Doing so will make builds more reliable, and allow stackage.org to host generated Haddocks.

turing-music interprets 42 built-in Turing machines with 5 states and 2 symbols. In every 0.1 second, a motion is done and the contents of the tape is printed. At the same time, a sound is played. The pitch of the sound depends on the position of the last change on the tape.

The built-in machines are busy beaver candidates. A busy beaver is a Turing machine which, when given an empty tape, does a lot of work, then halts. Currently it is not known whether these simple machines halt or not.
