PPT-Deterministic Finite Automata

DFA A primitive computing machine with very limited amount of memory Example inspired from Sipsers book Automatic door mechanism Front pad Rear pad DOOR Example Front pad. Each one tape automaton defines a set of tapes a twotape automaton defines a set of pairs of tapes et cetera The structure of the defined sets is studied Various generalizations of the notion of an automaton are introduced and their relation to the Rational .

A deterministic finite automaton (DFA) is a five-tuple A = (Q, . , , q. 0,. F) where. Q is a finite set of . states.  is a finite set of . input symbols.  is a function : Q   Q called .
