Simple Turing Machine Simulator

it uses the same syntax used in the official turing competition in Italy. you can find the syntax here
it doesn't fully support the syntax expansion but is WIP! (here)

Important note:

The data it reads and writes is case-sensitive!

Arguments and things

Argument	Description	Parameter	Default	Optional
-t	verbose	(Optional) float: seconds to wait between each instruction	0.02	✅
-f	read from a file	file path: the file path	istruzioni.txt	✅

Stupid examples

./a.out -t

Verbose with default wait time

./a.out -t -f a.txt

Verbose with default wait time, reading from file

./a.out -f ./sadasd/fdksf/c.txt

Reading from file

./a.out -f ./sadasd/fdksf/c.txt -t 0.1

Reading from file with verbose and wait time 0.1s

Input file structure

istruzioni.txt

DJBPG
(0, [B..F][H..Z]G, 0, [A..E][G..Y]-, >)

First line: initial tape --> DJBPG
Everything below: instructions --> (0, [B..F][H..Z]G, 0, [A..E][G..Y]-, >)

You can find many examples in problemi_risolti/

Compilation

It works on every OS (in theory)
Just compile it with

g++ turing_simulator.cpp

If you're on Windows and it doesnt work, also add -std=c++14 when compiling
