simple non deterministic turing machine simulator

TODO:

implementation of Epsilon
implementation of a GUI representing runs and allowing changes

what to change

the TestText.txt file contains example code, replace whats in there with ur code and it will run

how to install

requires jdk22 or higher version
in .../NTMsim/src use:
javac *.java
java Main

if something goes wrong or it shows a file is missing just compile that file with:
javac MissingFile.java

syntax:

here is how the syntax would look like replace the given cariable names with ones you like

.init:
start: your start;
end: your end;
alphabet: char1, char2, ...;
symbols: char1, char2, char3,...;
.code:
currentState, currentChar, nextState, nextChar, (< or > or _);

for the direction use <, > or _ to show where the tm should read next
the order in init or in code doesnt matter, but the .init part has to come before the .code part
you need 1 start point and 1 end point, whenever the next command is read as end while going through ur tm it will terminate successfully
the size of the alphabet or the symbols doesnt matter, should be bigger then 1 to make a functional program tho
in code u have to create the commands for each situationhere is also recommeneded a size of atleast 2 so it does smth
whitespaces can be placed however you want to, the parser will remove them within itself anyways

example :

.init: start:q; end: q2; alphabet: a,b; symbols: a,b,c; .code: q,a,q1,a, >; q1,b,q2,b,>;

this works

.init: ; symbols: a,b,c
end: q2; alphabet: a,b; start: q; .code: q,
a,q1,a, >; q1,b,q2,b,>;

so does this even tho it doesnt look good
