This is the only introduction to cover such applications. With over 350 exercises, many examples and illustrations, this is an ideal contemporary introduction for students; others, new to the field, will welcome it for self-learning. 588 0 Print version record. 650 0 Machine theory.|0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85079341 650 0 Formal languages.|0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85050802 650 0 Molecular computers.|0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh96004522 650 0 Machine theory|0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85079341|vProblems, exercises, etc.|0http://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99001553 650 0 Formal languages|0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85050802|vProblems, exercises, etc.|0http://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99001553 650 0 Molecular computers|0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh96004522|vProblems, exercises, etc.|0http:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001553 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Problems and exercises.|2fast|0http://id.worldcat.org/fast /1423783 655 7 Problems and exercises.|2lcgft|0http://id.loc.gov/ authorities/genreForms/gf2014026154 700 1 Head, Thomas J.,|d1934-|0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/no2003068869 776 08 |iPrint version:|aAnderson, James A.
