alan turing invented a theoretical computer, with a simple programming model that should be able to solve any problem. it is known as the 'turing machine'.
it has a program, and some data (a theoretical tape) as input. all it can do is change the sate of section of the tape. my tape has four states, but three is more taditional. i've inculded a program that adds 1 to whatever is on the tape. download it, unzip it, run it, load the program, load the number (or make your own), then click run (left hand side, second from bottom).
NOTE - you will have to rename the extensions to 'zip'
