How do I simulate a sorting algorithm?

Open this page and use the live Turing Machine tool below — set your inputs and the simulation runs instantly in your browser using real numerics. No install, no account needed.

Yes. The simulation runs free in your browser. A one-time unlock or a Pro plan adds advanced parameters, saved presets, data import, and clean exports.

Can I use my own numbers?

Absolutely — every input is adjustable, and with data import you can drive a sorting algorithm from your own measurements.

Writes the maximum 1s then halts (Σ=6). A finite state machine plus an infinite tape — the abstract computer that defines what is computable at all.

Reading this result: This 3-state busy beaver writes the maximum possible six 1s onto a blank tape before halting — the champion for its size, and a vivid reminder that even tiny machines can be hard to predict.

About this simulation

The full Turing Machine tool models a sorting algorithm with the same numerics engineers and scientists use — running entirely client-side. Change any parameter and the result updates in real time, so you can build intuition, check a design, or teach the concept without spreadsheets or installs.
