Memory and Introduction to Codecast
Bunyod Suvonov

Turing Machine as a Fundamental Computer Architecture

  • Invented by Alan Turing in 1936

  • Has a tape and read/write head

  • "It is possible to invent a single machine which can be used to compute any computable sequence. If this machine U is supplied with the tape on the beginning of which is written the string of quintuples separated by semicolons of some computing machine M, then U will compute the same sequence as M." - Alan Turing

  • "Turing's paper ... contains, in essence, the invention of the modern computer and some of the programming techniques that accompanied it." - Minsky

Codecast

Notes

  • //! showMemory(start=65520) for stack

  • //! showMemory(start=272) for heap

  • Int variables are initialized to 0 automatically. This is tool specific and variables may not be initialized automatically in other environments. So, it's a good practice to always intialize them with 0 manually

Exercise

  • Write a C program to concatenate two strings using pointers

Thanks for your attention!
