Description
Theory of Computation is treated as a tough subject by Computer Science Students. But it is a beautiful subject .If you understand the concepts thoroughly it is very easy to learn. The subject has got it’s applications in compiler design and in designing many computational models
I have tried to co-relate this subject with our English language.
The purpose of this course is any student who wants to learn computation must understand the concepts and get the base right. There are lot of research potential too. It should be studied by Computer Science, Mathematics and Linguistic students
We have divided into three sessions.
Session 1 covers Strings, Alphabets, Empty String, Difference between ,null set and epsilon, substrings of string, easy way to calculate substrings from a string ,Prefix-Leading ,Suffix and Trailing characters .I have worked out some questions so that students understand these concepts thoroughly
Session 2 covers Grammar, Sentence ,Production, Sentential form, Non Terminals, Terminals and all
Session 3 covers Chomsky Hierarchy Type 0,Type 1,Type 2 ,Type 3 .Subset ,Superset ,Accepting Machines .Language generated by each Grammar or type. Machine accepting each class of Language. Restrictions imposed on each types etc.
I have also included assignments for students to learn so that they can work out and ensure that they get the basics
right
