{"product_id":"a-second-course-in-formal-jeffrey-shallit-9780521865722","title":"A Second Course in Formal Languages and Automata Theory","description":"Intended for graduate students and advanced undergraduates in computer science, A Second Course in Formal Languages and Automata Theory treats topics in the theory of computation not usually covered in a first course. After a review of basic concepts, the book covers combinatorics on words, regular languages, context-free languages, parsing and recognition, Turing machines, and other language classes. Many topics often absent from other textbooks, such as repetitions in words, state complexity, the interchange lemma, 2DPDAs, and the incompressibility method, are covered here. The author places particular emphasis on the resources needed to represent certain languages. The book also includes a diverse collection of more than 200 exercises, suggestions for term projects, and research problems that remain open.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jeffrey Shallit\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521865727\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521865722\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/08\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 254\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.20w x 0.70d","brand":"Jeffrey Shallit","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43946746511615,"sku":"9780521865722","price":83.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_43d5e6ce-f992-44db-9510-0ce9d9618163.jpg?v=1681514903","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-second-course-in-formal-jeffrey-shallit-9780521865722","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
