A Universal Turing machine U. U consists of a set of instructions in the table that can “execute” the correctly-formulated “code number” of any arbitrary Turing machine M on its tape. In some models, the head shuttles back and forth between various regions on the tape. In other models the head shuttles the tape back and forth.

Is It Turing Complete? is a reality television series which challenges mathematicians to solve an increasingly difficult series of Turing-completeness problems.
