Here is yet another record-breaking "first": a preview before the prior article goes live at Decoded Science.
In addition, I'm publicizing more than one article in a series in one single self-promotional blog entry.
One day later, on Feb. 21st, "A Brief Introduction to the Turing Machine" has been published. This diagram has not yet made its appearance there.
The actual "example" article, "Examples of Turing Machines: Loops, Halts, and Rewriting", was published Feb. 24th.
The Third "Turing Machine" Article
It would be a neat trick to have a non-deterministic computer. Of course, "boffins" are working on it...
Publicity for my Turing Machine Articles
Writing Tip
Seek out and embrace opportunities to write a series of articles.
(One special benefit that I'm finding is that I can publicize this series more efficiently by mentioning multiple articles in the same promotional blog entry. Whether that translates to more readers, or fewer, is still a mystery).
Take your time to think of the theme; do more research than normal; and then reap the reward by writing a series rather than a one-shot wonder article.
Although I was somewhat familiar with the Turing machine before starting the research, I was surprised at how much there was to cover. Alan Turing is in the spotlight, too, although he's been dead over fifty years. So I have lots of material for further articles.
You can find similar possibilities too. If you haven't tried before, look around for an opportunity and try it.
