Answer:You can,but it is easier to prove things about TM's,because they are so simple. o And yet they are as powerful as any computer. More so,in fact,since they have infinite memory. 4Why Turing Machines? ◼ Why not deal with C programs or something like that? ◼ Answer: You can, but it is easier to prove things about TM’s, because they are so simple.
