Problem 10(Infinite Doubling). In this problem we construct a Turing machine that (infinitely) prints out out powers of two. Starting with 1** we will see
1**
1**11**
1**11**1111**
1**11**1111**11111111**
1**11**1111**11111111**1111111111111111** and soon.
One way we can tackle this problem is by the following:
Read a 1 and x it out.
(while seeking a 1) If you encounter a *, then seek the end and print a *.
Seek the end and print two 1s.
Seek the swapped x and return it to a 1 and repeat step 1.
For example, the first few moves should look roughly like the following. Here we did not include all of the individual movements, but you should get a feel for the movements. (Sorry the spacing with the blank is a bit funky.)
