Automata and Computability

Automata and Computability is a class-tested textbook which provides a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the theory of automata and computation. The author uses illustrations, engaging examples, and historical remarks to make the material interesting and relevant for students. It incorporates modern/handy ideas, such as derivative-based parsing and a Lambda reducer showing the universality of Lambda calculus. The book also shows how to sculpt automata by making the regular language conversion pipeline available through a simple command interface. A Jupyter not will accompany the book to feature code, YouTube videos, and other supplements to assist instructors and students. Features Uses illustrations, engaging examples, and historical remarks to make the material accessible Incorporates modern/handy ideas, such as derivative-based parsing and a Lambda reducer showing the universality of Lambda calculus Shows how to ?sculpt? automata by making the regular language conversion pipeline available through simple command interface Uses a mini functional programming (FP) notation consisting of lambdas, maps, filters, and set comprehension (supported in Python) to convey math through PL constructs that are succinct and resemble math Provides all concepts are encoded in a compact Functional Programming code that will tesselate with Latex markup and Jupyter widgets in a document that will accompany the books. Students can run code effortlessly.Automata and Computability A Programmer?s Perspective By: Ganesh Gopalakrishnan Publisher: Chapman & Hall Print ISBN: 9781138552425, 1138552429 other ISBNs: 9781351374286, 1351374281 Edition: 1st Copyright year: 2019 SKU: 9781351374286R90 ? . ?
