Lecture 3: Regular Pumping Lemma, Finite Automata → Regular Expressions, CFGs
Description: Quickly reviewed last lecture. Introduced nondeterministic finite automata (NFA). Proved that NFA and DFA are equivalent in power. Proved that the class of regular languages is closed under ◦, ∗. Showed conversion of regular expressions to NFAs.
Instructor: Prof. Michael Sipser
