Re: Regular expression

Hi;

I know what a regular expression is but I have no idea how to use it with cellular automata.

Have you tried the Stack Exchange or Stack Overflow?


In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.

Re: Regular expression

Hi evinda,

I understood the language to be

Since there are algorithms to convert from RE to NFA to DFA to minimized DFA, someone has written a software for that: JFLAP

Enter the RE as: 1*(00+010+!)(01)*

edit: corrected the RE

Re: Regular expression

1. After entering the RE, choose convert->"convert to NFA"
2. "Do All" and "export"
3.  Convert->"convert to DFA" and "complete" and "Done"
4. Convert->"minimize DFA". Select root of the tree and "complete subtree", and "Finish"
5. Click "complete" and "Done"

I was unable to upload earlier, this is the DFA I got.

Re: Regular expression

My bad, here is the diagram we get for the corrected expression.

Re: Regular expression

Doesn't that DFA also accept 0101?

It's expected since we can choose

Re: Regular expression

We can chose epsilon only once...

Re: Regular expression
