If a string can be derived from the rules 1, 2 and 3 then it is also a regular expression. Note that a* means zero or more occurrence of a in the string while a+ means that one or more occurrence of a in the st
Regular expressions [6] also denote regular languages, which consists of strings of particular type. The patterns of strings described by regular expression are exactly same as what can be described by finite automata. It means every formal language defined by any finite automata is also defined ...

In the standard, the right-hand sides of productions are based on regular expressions, although only regular expressions that denote words unambiguously, in the sense of the ISO standard, are allowed. In general, a word that is denoted by a regular expression is witnessed by a sequence of ...
Theorem 7.2.4 provides us with yet another characterization of the regular languages. Thus a regular language can be represented by a DFA, an NFA, a regular expression, an EFA, or a regular grammar. Show moreView chapter Book 1998, Fundamentals of the Theory of Computation: Principles and Pr...
Computation of Nullables : All nodes except the * nodes are not nullable. Also if some leaf node is for έ, then it is also nullable. Firstpos (Firstposition): At each node n of the syntax tree of a regular expression, we define a function firstpos(n) that gives the set of first...
3.2, followed by conditional operators, which are presented in Sect. 3.3. Finally, Sect. 3.4 is devoted to explaining the concept of tokens and their use in regular expression matching.This is a preview of subscription content, log in via an institution to check access. ...
Run the DFA backward to find the start.When studying regular expressions in a theory of computation class, a standard exercise is to prove that if you take a regular expression and reverse all the concatenations (e.g.,[Gg]oo+glebecomeselgo+o[Gg]) then you end up with a regular expressi...

In this paper, two theorems were proved and were used to prove the correctness of the algorithm. Our approach was based on three basic module to ...
