Understanding Scanners and Finite State Automata

This lecture focuses on the function of the scanner within the context of computer science and programming. We delve into finite state automata, explaining their fundamental principles and operations. Additionally, we establish the equivalence of finite state automata with left linear and right linear grammars, showcasing their capabilities in language recognition. This overview provides essential insights for students and professionals interested in compiler design and automata theory.
