Regular expressions
Terminology on Formal languages:
– alphabet : a finite set of symbols
– string : a finite sequence of alphabet symbols
– language : a (finite or infinite) set of strings.
Regular Operations on languages:
Union: R S = { x | x R or x S}
Concatenation: RS = { xy | x R and y S}
Kleene closure: R* = R concatenated with itself 0 or more times
= {} R RR RRR
= strings obtained by concatenating a finite
number of strings from the set R.

Regular Expressions
A pattern notation for describing certain kinds of sets over
strings:
Given an alphabet :
– is a regular exp. (denotes the language {})
– for each a , a is a regular exp. (denotes the language {a})
– if r and s are regular exps. denoting L(r) and L(s) respectively, then
so are:
• (r) | (s) ( denotes the language L(r) L(s) )
• (r)(s) ( denotes the language L(r)L(s) )
• (r)* ( denotes the language L(r)* )

Common Extensions to r.e. Notation
One or more repetitions of r : r+
A range of characters : [a-zA-Z], [0-9]
An optional expression: r?
Any single character: .
Giving names to regular expressions, e.g.:
–
–
–
–
letter = [a-zA-Z_]
digit = 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9
ident = letter ( letter | digit )*
Integer_const = digit+

Recognizing Tokens: Finite Automata
A finite automaton is a 5-tuple (Q, , T, q0, F),
where:
– is a finite alphabet;
– Q is a finite set of states;
– T: Q Q is the transition
function;
– q0 Q is the initial state; and
– F Q is a set of final states.

Example 2
Consider the problem of recognizing register names
Register r (0|1|2| … | 9) (0|1|2| … | 9)*
Allows registers of arbitrary number
Requires at least one digit
RE corresponds to a recognizer (or DFA)
(0|1|2| … 9)
(0|1|2| … 9)
r
S0
S1
S2
accepting state
Transitions on other inputs

Programming Languages
10
Example 2 (continued)
DFA operation
Start in state S0 & take transitions on each input character
DFA accepts a word x iff x leaves it in a final state (S2 )
(0|1|2| … 9)
r
S0
(0|1|2| … 9)
S1
S2
accepting state
Recognizer for Register
So,
r17 takes it through s0, s1, s2 and accepts
r takes it through s0, s1 and fails
a takes it straight to se
Programming Languages
11
Example 2 (continued)
To be useful, recognizer must turn into code
Char next character
State s0
while (Char EOF)
State (State,Char)
Char next character
if (State is a final state )
then report success
else report failure

What if we need a tighter specification?
r Digit Digit* allows arbitrary numbers
Accepts r00000
Accepts r99999
What if we want to limit it to r0 through r31 ?
Write a tighter regular expression
– Register r ( (0|1|2) (Digit | ) | (4|5|6|7|8|9) | (3|30|31) )
– Register r0|r1|r2| … |r31|r00|r01|r02| … |r09
Produces a more complex DFA
Has more states
Same cost per transition
Same basic implementation

Automating Scanner Construction
RE→ NFA (Thompson’s construction)
– Build an NFA for each term
– Combine them with ε-moves
NFA → DFA (subset construction)
– Build the simulation
DFA → Minimal DFA
– Hopcroft’s algorithm
DFA →RE (Not part of the scanner construction)
– All pairs, all paths problem
– Take the union of all paths from s0 to an accepting state
