Bell eats counter
Definition
Bell eats counter is a informal class of Turing machines. A typical Turing machine in this class has the following behavior:
- It has both a bell and a counter on the tape.
- Increment: when the bouncer in the bell finish a period, the counter is increased by one.
- Overflow: when the bouncer in the bell overflows, the bell eats the lowest digit of the counter (the counter is halved), and the bouncer in the bell is reset.
