Answer

Constructing a Turing machine with tape symbols 0, 1, and B that, given a bit string as input, replaces all but the leftmost 1 on the tape with 0s and does not change any of the other symbols on the tape.

Work Step by Step

Turing machine with tape symbols 0, 1, and B that, given a bit string as input, replaces all but the leftmost 1 on the tape with 0s and does not change any of the other symbols on the tape. will be as follow (s0, 0, s0, 0, R), (s0, 1, s1, 1, R), (s1, s1, 0, R), (s1, 1, s1, 0, R)
