Study Notes
Introduction to Regular Languages
- The theory of computation seeks to understand the capabilities of computers through idealized computational models.
- Various computational models are used based on specific features needed for analysis.
Finite Automata
- Finite automata represent models for computers with limited memory and are commonly utilized in electromechanical device operations.
- Applications include speech processing and optical character recognition.
- Markov chains can model price changes in financial markets.
Finite Automaton Structure
- A finite automaton consists of a start state, accept states, and is characterized by state transitions based on input symbols.
- Accept output occurs when the automaton ends in an accept state after processing an input string.
State Diagram
- A state diagram visually represents the states and transitions of a finite automaton, like M1 which contains three states: q1 (start), q2 (accept), and q3.
- Input processing involves moving through states with labeled transitions based on read symbols.
Example of Input Processing
- The input string "1101" is processed as follows:
- Starts in state q1, moving through states according to input symbols, leading to an accept state (q2) if the last symbol processed fits the defined criteria.
- M1 accepts strings ending with 1 and those with an even number of 0s after the last 1, rejecting others.
Formal Definition of Finite Automaton
- A finite automaton consists of five essential components:
- Set of states
- Input alphabet
- Transition rules
- Start state
- Set of accept states
- Mathematically represented as a 5-tuple.
Language Recognition
- The language recognized by a finite automaton (L(M)) is the set of strings it accepts, while the term "recognizes" is preferred to avoid confusion with machine acceptance of strings.
- An empty automaton still recognizes an empty language if it accepts no strings.
Experimental Understanding
- Testing the automaton with various input strings reveals its functioning and acceptance criteria.
- For instance, string "1101" accepted by M2 confirms it recognizes the language defined by strings that end in 1 (L(M2) = {w | w ends in 1}).
Overview of Machines
- Machine M3 operates similarly to M2, with adjustment in the accept state position, affecting the strings it accepts.

Linux File System and Commands
- Linux file system allows for structured storage of information using files consisting of bits ('0' or '1').
- Rules for naming files in Linux include:
- No spaces allowed; use underscores instead.
- Names must start with an alphabet character.
- Special characters like $, *, %, @, /, etc., are not permitted.
- File names are case-sensitive (e.g., "City", "city", and "CITY" are distinct).
File Creation and Management
-
Use
catcommand to create a file:- Syntax:
$ cat > file_name - Save contents with
Ctrl + Dto exit. - Example:
$ cat > city.txtcreates a text file named city.txt.
- Syntax:
-
Display file contents:
- Use
cat file_nameto view contents on the screen.
- Use

Display contents of multiple files:
- Use
$ cat file1 file2to view combined contents.
- Use
-
Create an empty file:
- Use
touchcommand:$ touch filename.
- Use
Viewing File Contents
- Use
moreto view file contents one screen at a time, with options for line numbers and screen size.
Moving and Renaming Files
- Use
mvcommand for moving and renaming files:- Syntax:
$ mv [options] source destination. - Moving example:
$ mv ~/temp/file.txt .moves a file to the current directory. - Renaming example:
$ mv file.txt ~/temp/file2.txtrenames a file.
- Syntax:
Copying Files
- Use
cpcommand to copy files or directories:- Syntax:
$ cp [options] source destination. - Copying example:
$ cp file.txt ~/temp/copies file to a directory.
