Regular and Context-Free Grammars

ITEM 3 – Context-Independent Language

3.1 Regular Grammars

Regular features include a special case of length independent of context, and therefore part defined by the generated AF may be for grammars (LR -> expr. regular AF; LIC -> gram. Indep. automata to context and battery).

A regular grammar G is a 4-tuple G = (N, Σ, P, S) where Σ is an alphabet, N is a collection of nonterminals, S is a nonterminal called the start symbol and P is a collection of substitution rules, called productions

Programming Paradigms: A Comprehensive Overview

Programming Paradigms

Introduction

A paradigm is a fundamental model or scheme that organizes our views regarding a particular topic. Programming paradigms represent a particular approach or philosophy for building software. They set limits for problem-solving and influence the development of new solutions.

Common Paradigms

  • Imperative: The most common paradigm, focusing on program state and statements that change the state. Examples include C, Pascal, and COBOL.
  • Object-Oriented: Organizes programs

Programming Paradigms: Imperative, OOP, Visual, Structured & More

Programming Paradigms

Imperative Programming

Imperative languages are based on commands that instruct the computer to perform actions, organize, or modify values in memory. These commands are typically executed sequentially.

Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)

OOP is a programming style that uses objects as fundamental building blocks. These objects encapsulate data (attributes) and functions (methods) that operate on that data, simulating real-world entities. OOP is considered a fifth-generation language.
