How do I write a proof using induction on the length of the input string?
Question Detail: In my Computing Theory course, a lot of our problems involve using induction on the length of the input string to prove statements about finite automata. I understand mathematical induction, however when strings come into play I get real Read More …
Best-Case Running Time For Binary Search Tree Insertion
Question Detail: The notion of best-case running time is kind of ambiguous for me. According to wikipedia, the definition of best case running time is: The term best-case performance is used in computer science to describe the way of an algorithm Read More …
In a DFA, does every state have a transition on every symbol of the alphabet?
Question Detail: If not, then what does it mean when for some state $q$ and some symbol $a$, $delta(q, a)$ does not exist? Asked By : Duncan Best Answer from StackOverflow Question Source : http://cs.stackexchange.com/questions/12587 Answered By : Wandering Logic You seem to have Read More …
Intersection of context free with regular languages
Question Detail: The intersection of a context free language L with a regular language M, is said to be always context free. I understood the cross product construction proof, but I still don’t get why it is context free but not Read More …
