Busy Beaver

Interactive explorations of fundamental computing concepts

Welcome

Dive into the foundations of computer science through hands-on, interactive simulations. Each exploration lets you see abstract concepts in action — from theoretical computation to the physical logic gates inside every processor.

The Busy Beaver Problem

Explore Turing machines and computability theory. Watch a 2-state machine write the maximum number of 1s before halting, and learn why the Busy Beaver function is uncomputable.

Computability Theory

ALU Binary Adder

See how computers add numbers at the gate level. Toggle binary inputs, select operations, and watch signals ripple through a chain of full adders built from XOR, AND, and OR gates.
