Turing machine and needle: what they have in common

  1. Step 1. Turing machine — uses — Algorithm. A formalization of the algorithm.
  2. Step 2. Algorithm — is used in — Program control of a machine. A program is a written algorithm.
  3. Step 3. Program control of a machine — is used in — Automaton. The sequence of movements is “recorded” in cams and cylinders.
  4. Step 4. Automaton — has part — Cam. Cams set the figures’ movements.
  5. Step 5. Cam — is part of — Sewing machine. Cams drive the fabric feed.
  6. Step 6. Sewing machine — has part — Needle. A needle with the eye near its point.
