Regular Grammar - Extended Regular Grammars

Extended Regular Grammars

An extended right regular grammar is one in which all rules obey one of

  1. Ba - where B is a non-terminal in N and a is a terminal in Σ
  2. AwB - where A and B are in N and w is in Σ*
  3. A → ε - where A is in N and ε is the empty string.

Some authors call this type of grammar a right regular grammar (or right linear grammar) and the type above a strictly right regular grammar (or strictly right linear grammar).

An extended left regular grammar is one in which all rules obey one of

  1. Aa - where A is a non-terminal in N and a is a terminal in Σ
  2. ABw - where A and B are in N and w is in Σ*
  3. A → ε - where A is in N and ε is the empty string.

Some authors call this type of grammar a left regular grammar and the type above a strictly left regular grammar.

Famous quotes containing the words extended, regular and/or grammars:

    All the Valley quivered one extended motion, wind
    undulating on mossy hills
    Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)

    This is the frost coming out of the ground; this is Spring. It precedes the green and flowery spring, as mythology precedes regular poetry. I know of nothing more purgative of winter fumes and indigestions. It convinces me that Earth is still in her swaddling-clothes, and stretches forth baby fingers on every side.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    A sure proportion of rogue and dunce finds its way into every school and requires a cruel share of time, and the gentle teacher, who wished to be a Providence to youth, is grown a martinet, sore with suspicions; knows as much vice as the judge of a police court, and his love of learning is lost in the routine of grammars and books of elements.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
