About this product

Product Information

An Introduction to Formal Languages and Automata, Fourth Edition provides an excellent presentation of the material that is essential to an introductory theory of computation course. This fourth edition offers expanded and simplified discussions of some of the more difficult ideas and constructions that often frustrate students. The author offers an intuitive motivation for proofs, and avoids excessive mathematical detail, so that students can focus on and understand the underlying detail. New end-of-chapter exercises, varying in degree of difficulty, are designed to illuminate and illustrate key concepts and call on students' problem-solving ability. New to this edition: Expanded and simplified discussions of some of the more difficult ideas and constructions such as the pumping lemmas, the "finite automata to regular expression" construction, and the "pushdown to context-free grammar" algorithm. New examples that clearly illustrate the above concepts. An introduction of transition graphs for pushdown automata and Turing machines. Chapter 14 has been expanded, making it suitable for a one or one and a half week discussion of computational complexity. New and revised exercises throughout. Instructor's guide with solutions manual and instructor's website available. Book jacket.

  • A good introduction book on the topic

    I bought this book for my Automata theory course. This book is great for: 1. great exercises. Many exercises are provided for each section. Some of them are easy, others are hard to solve. 2. Good writings. The author introduces each topic or concept clearly and concisely. IMO, these are the two most important requirements for a good book. Readers are not required to have any computer knowledge to understand the book, though it is better that a reader keeps computer architecture concepts in mind.

  • Automata

    I had to buy this book for class. It's a nice small book so I can keep it in my backpack in case I have time to do homework. On the other hand, though, the author seems to skimp on the details in the examples and the problems look more intimidating than they actually are.

  • good condition, as discribed.

    good book, has good coverage of the material. does a great presentation. I like the chapters. I am using for a class so I am not sure why do we have to rate it.

  • Great. Exactly as advertised, and fast shipper!

    Perfect Transaction! would repeat any time, saved me a ton of money from buying it from the bookstore.

  • Not what I would like in a textbook

    I don't like how it lacks good discriptions explaining what the terms are. I'm having a hard time understanding concepts because it poorly defines critical concepts.
