isomorphism(dfa1, dfa2, rel)

tests whether rel is an isomorphism from dfa1 to dfa2. (Inherited from FA.)

findIsomorphismOpt(dfa1, dfa2)

returns SOME of an isomorphism from dfa1 to dfa2, if dfa1 and dfa2 are isomorphic, and NONE, if dfa1 and dfa2 are not isomorphic.

tries to find an isomorphism from dfa1 to dfa2. Issues an error message if such an isomorphism doesn't exist. (Inherited from FA.)

isomorphic(dfa1, dfa2)

tests whether dfa1 and dfa2 are isomorphic. (Inherited from FA.)

renameAlphabet(dfa, rel)

renames the alphabet of dfa using the bijection rel. Issues an error message if rel is not a bijection from a superset of the alphabet of dfa to some set. (Inherited from FA.)

checkLP dfa lp

checks whether lp is valid for dfa, silently returning (), if it is, and explaining why it isn't, if it's not. (Inherited from FA.)

tests whether lp is valid for dfa. (Inherited from FA.)

findLPOpt dfa (qs, x, rs)

returns SOME of a minimal labeled path for dfa, taking qs to rs with label x, if such a labeled path exists, and NONE, if such a labeled path does not exist.

findLP dfa (qs, x, rs)

tries to find a minimal labeled path for dfa, taking qs to rs with label x. Issues an error message if there is an element of qs or rs that isn't a state of dfa, or such a labeled path doesn't exist. (Inherited from FA.)

findAcceptingLPOpt dfa x

returns SOME of a minimal, accepting labeled path for dfa and x, if such a labeled path exists, and NONE, if such a labeled path doesn't exist.

inter(dfa1, dfa2)

returns the intersection of dfa1 and dfa2. (Inherited from EFA.)

genInter

is defined by:

  fun genInter nil           = (* issues an error message *)
    | genInter [dfa]         = dfa
    | genInter (dfa :: dfas) = inter(inter, genInter dfas)

determTransitionFun dfa (q, a)

returns the unique state r such that (q, [a], r) is a transition of dfa. Issues an error message if q is not a state of dfa, or a is not a member of the alphabet of dfa.

determProcessStr dfa (q, x)

uses determTransitionFun to deterministically process x from q in dfa. Issues an error message if q is not a state of dfa, or there is a symbol of x that is not in the alphabet of dfa.

uses determProcessStr to test whether x is accepted by dfa.

fromNFA nfa

converts nfa to a DFA.

datatype relationship = Equal | ProperSub of Str.str | ProperSup of Str.str | Incomp of Str.str * Str.str

Datatype used by relation function.

relation(dfa1, dfa2)

determines the relationship between the language accepted by dfa1 and the language accepted by dfa2:

Equal means that the languages are equal;
ProperSub x means that the first language is a proper subset of the second, x is in the second language but not the first, and there is no shorter element of the second language that's not in the first one;
ProperSup x means that the first language is a proper superset of the second, x is in the first language but not the second, and there is no shorter element of the first language that's not in the second one;
Incomp(x, y) means that the two languages are incomparable, i.e., neither is a subset of the other, x is in the first language but not the second, there is no shorter element of the first language that's not in the second one, y is in the second language but not the first, and there is no shorter element of the second language that's not in the first one.

relationship(dfa1, dfa2)

explains the significance of the result of evaluating relation(dfa1, dfa2).

subset(dfa1, dfa2)

uses relation to test whether the language accepted by dfa1 is a subset of the language accepted by dfa2.

equivalent(dfa1, dfa2)

uses relation to test whether dfa1 and dfa2 are equivalent.
