A Turing machine simulator for A-level Computer Science, designed for classroom demonstrations and for students building their own machines through an intuitive interface.

Machines can be created rapidly and displayed with a clear finite state machine diagram. Use a single tape or a multi-row tape with up and down movement in addition to the usual left and right.
