Comment Re:Basic, Turing (Score 1) 1260
Forget Turing, what we need to learn on is Turing Machine transition mappings. Nothing introduces the basic concepts of a computer better than the theoretical model for all computation, am I right?
Just think... need to add two binary numbers together? Well, fire up the read/write head and infinite tape, and go to town with some state transitions. Start in state 0, on 1, move left, enter state 1, etc., etc.
Hours of educational fun. And I do mean hours.
