A Turing machine (TM) is a theoretical device that serves as a fundamental building block in the field of computational complexity theory. It was introduced by the mathematician Alan Turing in 1936 as a mathematical model of computation. A Turing machine consists of several components that work together to enable its functionality and computational power.
