  abstract =     "A recursive function interpreter was used to good
                 effect in an undergraduate course in elementary
                 automata theory. Although the functions were translated
                 into combinations of Turing machines, the interpreter
                 is not to be construed to be a Turing Table processor.
                 The results in this paper reflect both the author's
                 subjective judgment, and the compilation of statistics
                 from a questionnaire given to the students.The primary
                 effect was not the understanding of Turing machines or
                 recursive functions but rather the enthusiasm for such
                 study evidenced by the computer science students taking
                 the course. The evaluation of the interpreter is an
                 on-going process, extending even to students on the
                 sophomore and junior level.This paper describes both
                 the simulator and the effects of its use, as well as
                 some general principles concerning such devices.",
