Introduction to the Theory of Computation

Summary:

The book presents the fundamental concepts of computational theory, including automata, computability, and complexity, providing a rigorous exploration of how computation is understood in the context of mathematical models. It covers topics such as finite automata, context-free grammars, Turing machines, decidability, NP-completeness, and space complexity, with proofs and problem-solving exercises.

Key points:

1. Automata Theory: This is the study of abstract mathematical models, or automata, used in computation and decision-making processes. The book explores various types of automata.
