Description

This book presents the core ideas in the difficult subject of the Theory of Computation in a clear and simple language so that students are not lost in obscure formalisms. It combines contemporary examples with effective pedagogy through a problem-solving, rather than a theorem-proving approach. We need many more such high-quality textbooks to improve the quality of engineering education in India.
