  1. COMP3190: Principle of Programming Languages DFA and its equivalent, scanner

  2. Outline • DFA & NFA • DFA • NFA • NFA →DFA • Minimize DFA • Regular expression • Regular languages • Scanner

  3. Example of DFA 0 1 1 q2 q1 0

  4. Deterministic Finite Automata (DFA) • 5-tuple: • Q: finite set of states • Σ: finite set of “letters” (alphabet) • δ: Q ×Σ →Q (transition function) • q0: start state (in Q) • F : set of accept states (subset of Q) • Acceptance: Given an input string , it is consumed with the automata in a final state.

  5. Another Example of a DFA S b a b a r1 q1 b a a b q2 r2 a b

  7. Non-deterministic Finite Automata (NFA) Transition function is different • δ: Q ×Σε→ P(Q) • P(Q) is the powerset of Q (set of all subsets) • Σε is the union of Σ and the special symbol ε (denoting empty) String is accepted if there is at least one pathleading to an accept state, and input consumed.

  8. Example of an NFA 0, 1 0, 1 0, ε 1 1 q1 q2 q3 q4 What strings does this NFA accept?

  10. Converting an NFA to a DFA • For set of states S, - closure(S) is the set of states that can be reached from S without consuming any input. • For a set of states S, Sc is the set of states that can be reached from S by consuming input symbol c. • Each set of NFA states corresponds to one DFA state (hence at most 2n states).

  16. Outline • DFA & NFA • DFA • NFA • NFA →DFA • Minimize DFA • Regular expression • Regular languages • Scanner

  17. State Minimization • Resulting DFA can be quite large • Contains redundant or equivalent states b b 2 a b start a a,b 4 5 C 1 a,b b a 3 a Both DFAs accept b*ab*a b b start a,b 1 2 3 C a,b a a

  18. Obtaining the minimal equivalent DFA • Initially two equivalence classes: accept and nonaccept states. • Search for an equivalence class C and an input letter a such that with a as input, the states in C make transitions to states in k>1 different equivalence classes. • Partition C into k classes accordingly • Repeat until unable to find a class to partition.

  19. Minimization Example 18 Split into two teams. ACCEPT vs. NONACCEPT

  20. Minimization Example 19 0-label doesn’t split up any teams

  21. Minimization Example 20 1-label splits up NONACCEPT's

  22. Minimization Example 21 No further splits. HALT! Start team contains original start

  23. Minimization Example.End Result 22 States of the minimal automata are remaining teams. Edges are consolidated across each team. Accept states are break-offs from original ACCEPT team.

  27. Outline • DFA & NFA • Regular expression • Regular languages • Scanner

  28. Regular Expressions R is a regular expression if R is • “a” for some a in Σ. • ε (the empty string). • member of the empty language. • the union of two regular expressions. • the concatenation of two regular expr. • R1* (Kleene closure: zero or more repetitions of R1).

  29. Examples of Regular Expressions {0, 1}* 0 all strings that end in 0 {0, 1} 0* string that start with 1 or 0 followed by zero or more 0s. {0, 1}* all strings {0n1n, n >=0} not a regular expression!!!

  30. Regular Expressions in Java • Ex: pattern match. • Is text in the set described by the pattern? • public class RE { public static void main(String[] args) { String pattern = args[0]; String text = args[1]; System.out.println(text.matches(pattern)); } } • % java RE "..oo..oo." bloodroot true • % java RE "[$_A-Za-z][$_A-Za-z0-9]*" ident123 true • % java RE "[a-z]+@([a-z]+\.)+(edu|com)" rs@cs.princeton.edu true

  31. Regular Expression Notation in Java • a: an ordinary letter • ε: the empty string • M | N: choosing from M or N • MN: concatenation of M and N • M*: zero or more times (Kleene star) • M+: one or more times • M?: zero or one occurence • [a-zA-Z] character set alternation (choice) • . period stands for any single char exc. newline

  32. Converting a regular expression to a NFA • Empty string • Single character • union operator • Concatenation • Kleene closure

  33. Regular expression→NFA Language: Strings of 0s and 1s in which the number of 0s is even Regular expression: (1*01*0)*1*

  34. NFA → DFA Initial classes:{A, B, E}, {C, D} No class requires partitioning! Hence a two-state DFA is obtained.

  35. Minimize DFA

  36. Outline • DFA & NFA • Regular expression • Regular languages • Scanner

  37. Regular language • a formal language • a set of finite sequences of symbols from a finite alphabet • it can be generated by a regular grammar

  38. Regular Grammar • Later definitions build on earlier ones • Nothing defined in terms of itself (no recursion) Regular grammar for numeric literals in Pascal:digit → 0|1|2|...|8|9 unsigned_integer → digit digit* unsigned_number → unsigned_integer (( . unsigned_integer) | ε ) (( e (+ | - | ε ) unsigned_integer ) | ε )

  39. Important Theorems • A language is regular if a regular expression describes it. • A language is regular if a finite automata recognizes it. • DFAs and NFAs are equally powerful.

  40. Outline • DFA & NFA • Regular expression • Regular languages • Scanner

  41. Scanning • Accept the longest possible token in each invocation of the scanner. • Implementation. • Capture finite automata. • Case(switch) statements. • Table and driver.

  42. Scanner for Pascal

  43. Scanner for Pascal(case Statements)

  44. Scanner Generators • Start with a regular expression. • Construct an NFA from it. • Use a set of subsets construction to obtain an equivalent DFA. • Construct the minimal equivalent DFA.
