About this video

📘 Welcome to the "Theory of Computation & Automata" series!

In this video, we present a Turing Machine (TM) that performs Unary Addition — a simplified yet powerful demonstration of TM computation and tape manipulation.

🧮 Unary Addition Concept:

Numbers are represented using the symbol 1

Two numbers are separated by a special symbol (e.g., + or 0)

The result is the concatenation of both unary numbers

🔍 What You’ll Learn:

How unary numbers are encoded on the Turing Machine tape

Designing states and transitions to perform addition

Step-by-step simulation of the TM tape

Final tape structure representing the result

📌 Example Covered:
Unary addition of 111+11 (i.e., 3 + 2 = 5 → Output: 11111)

🎯 This example helps in understanding basic TM computation, useful for GATE, UGC NET, and university-level theory exams.

🧠 A must-watch if you want to strengthen your foundation in Turing Machines and computation models.
