Tock stands for Theory Of Computing toolKit. It can simulate the automata taught in standard theory of computation courses (deterministic and nondeterministic finite automata, pushdown automata, and Turing machines). It also allows multiple cells, stacks, or tapes.
Tock depends on the following:
Steps:
Run pip install tock
.
Install Jupyter/IPython by running pip install jupyter
(or conda install jupyter
if you use Anaconda).
Install GraphViz. But if you don't have it, Tock will attempt to download and use Viz.js, which is slower but otherwise identical.
The documentation is contained in a series of IPython notebooks:
To open them, run ipython notebook
in the Tock directory. A web browser should open, showing you the contents of the directory. Click on doc
and then one of the .ipynb
files to view it.
