What does the following Turing machine do? (The triangle symbol denotes the empty cell on the tape) Hint: try some simple input and find what the TM does to the tape. 8 (1, a) = (1, b, R) 8 (1,6) = (1, a, R) 8(1, A) = (F, A, L)
A palindrome is a string of characters thatreads the same forward and backward, suchas radar or IUPUI. Write a Turing machine to decide whether any binary string is apalindrome by halting with a blank tape ifthe string is a palindrome and halting with anonblank tape if the string is not a palindrome.Note: The world’s longest single-wordpalindrome is the Finnish word for “lyedealer”: Saippuakivikauppias Other palindromes include: Slap a ham on Omaha pals Do geese see godA man a plan a canal Panama
Design a Turing Machine that accepts strings over the alphabet (a,b) that always ends with 'aaa'.
Our goal is to construct a deterministic one-tape Turing machine that accepts strings overΣ = {a, b} which are palindromes. A palindrome is a string which is the same when read forwards andbackwards, for example abbabba. The Turing machine should operate in the following way:1. Remember the first character of the input in the state control, and erase this character (replace it witha blank).2. Move the head to the last (right-most) character of the input.3. Verify that this character is the same character as the one stored in the state control. If it is, deletethis character. If it is a different character, immediately halt and reject.4. Move the head to the left-most character of the input.5. If there are any characters left on the input, repeat from step 1.6. If in step 1 or 3 the tape is empty (i.e. all characters of the input have been erased), halt and accept.
Create a Turing machine that implements the following algorithm given the alphabet is a,b,x,Null and the input is ((a+b)*x(a+b)*)3 This means that an unknown number of a and b characters has exactly 1 x somewhere in that substring. This is done exactly 3 times, for a grand total of 3 'x' characters as input. Traverse the input string if xx occurs, delete one x then shift the remaining string to remove the blank then restart. if xx does not or no longer occurs anywhere in the string, determine whether there are more a or more b characters if there are more a characters accept if there are an equal number of a and b characters reject/Fail if there are more b characters accept BUT use a different accept state. Please illustrate a turing machine or jflap file.

Question 7: Turing Machines (a) Draw the state diagram of a Turing Machine, that converts every 'a' to 'b', and every 'b' to 'a', except for the last alphabet. Also, it goes to the accept state if the last alphabet is 'a', and goes to the reject state if the last alphabet is 'b'. Hint: Convert everything until you reach the end (blank symbol), then take one step backward and convert the last alphabet again. As you converted the last alphabet twice, it ensures that the last alphabet was not changed. Then stop and depending on what the last alphabet is, now finally, go to the accept or reject state.
It is a true or false question and please provide a reason for your answer .
