URM Emulator

I wanted to code the multiplication algorithm as described in URM code in Mathematica. I ended the day on my way to building a URM emulator in Mathematica. An example of not strictly necessary study time. In this case related to M381. But a task like this is what makes studying so much fun.

I am programming a Mathematica Function that takes a list like this

{
{{J}, {1,3,12}},
{{J}, {2,3,11}},
{{C}, {1,3}},
{{S}, {5}},
{{J}, {2,5,11}},
{{Z}, {4}},
{{S}, (3}},
{{S}, {4}},
{{J}, {1,4,4}},
{{J}, {1,1,7}},
{{C}, {3,1}},
}

as input and then processes it as of it was the following URM program.
1 J(1,3,12)
2 J(2,3,11)
3 C(1,3)
4 S(5)
5 J(2,5,11)
6 Z(4)
7 S(3)
8 S(4)
9 J(1,4,4)
10 J(1,1,7)
11 C(3,1)

I hope to complete it somewhere this week.

Alan Turing must have been quite a visionary I doubt it however if he ever imagined students, using advanced computers, trying to emulate his Turing Machine or similar URM.

Mathematics: is it the fabric of MEST?
This is my voyage
My continuous mission
To uncover hidden structures
To create new theorems and proofs
To boldly go where no man has gone before




(Raumpatrouille – Die phantastischen Abenteuer des Raumschiffes Orion, colloquially aka Raumpatrouille Orion was the first German science fiction television series. Its seven episodes were broadcast by ARD beginning September 17, 1966. The series has since acquired cult status in Germany. Broadcast six years before Star Trek first aired in West Germany (in 1972), it became a huge success.)
