Description

It’s not a secret that big tech companies, such as Google, Facebook, and others, organize their recruiting process around generalist engineers who understand basic fundamental systems, data structures, and algorithms. In fact, it’s a known issue in tech-recruiting; there are a lot of “programmers”, but not so many “engineers”. And what does define an engineer in this case? An ability to solve complex problems, with understanding (and experience) in those generic concepts. And there is a simple trick how you can gain great experience with transferable knowledge to other systems. You take some complex theoretical field, which might not (yet) be related to your main job, and implement it in a language you’re familiar with. And while you build it, you learn all the different data structures and algorithms that accommodate this system. It should specifically be something generic (for example, state machines) so that you can further transfer this knowledge to your “day-to-day” job. In this course, we take this approach. To study automata “theory”, we make it more practical: we take one of its widely used applications, the lexical analysis and pattern matching, and build a RegExp machine.

What you will learn

Learn about the theory of computation Learn about state machines and finite automata Learn about graphs, traversal, states, and transitions Learn how to build a full RegExp machine Learn about non-deterministic and deterministic finite automata Learn about formal grammar and finite automata
