On this view, a transducer is said to " transduce " ( i . e ., translate ) the contents of its input tape to its output tape, by accepting a string on its input tape and generating another string on its output tape.

At first glance, this seems incorrect because the A & rarr; C reducer needs to store the output tape from the A & rarr; B reducer onto the work tape in order to feed it into the B & rarr; C reducer, but this is not true.

A major and unique advantage of the Inforex Key-to-Disk-to-Tape system allowed an operator to directly read, edit, and write back, any single tape record directly onto the original 9 track output tape, in that tape records'original position in the tape.

The above is merely a sketch of a quantum Turing machine, rather than its formal definition, as it leaves vague several important details : for example, how often a measurement is performed; see for example, the difference between a measure-once and a measure-many QFA . This question of measurement affects the way in which writes to the output tape are defined.

The keyboard of the CPT 4200 had action keys for " skip " and " read " and mode keys for " word ", " line ", " paragraph, " and " page . " Pressing " read " transferred a word, line, paragraph, or page, depending on which mode key had been selected . from the input tape to both the paper and the output tape.
