devwithjevJev State Machine Emulates Toy Programs
Henry Mao built a Jev state machine that adds a prompted problem to its state, samples instructions to mutate that state, and loops until the program halts. Jev determines the control flow.

@typesafeai claims that Jev is designed to be used within programs.
But can Jev emulate programs?
I built a small Jev State Machine:
1. You give it a problem as a prompt, which is added to its state
2. Jev decides how to mutate its own state by sampling from a set of instructions.
3. It loops until the program halts, acting as an interpreter.
You give the goal. Jev decides the control flow.
Results on a few toy problems:
- Sorting numbers cases: 4/4 each
- GCD(84, 36): 4/4
- Digit sum of 2026: 4/4
- Factorial of 5: 2/4
- Fibonacci, Collatz, summing six numbers: 0/4 each (failed)
- Sudoku:
It solved the sorting-number cases, GCD(84, 36), and digit sum of 2026 in 4/4 trials each. It solved factorial of 5 in 2/4 trials and failed Fibonacci, Collatz, and summing six numbers in all four trials.
