Push Down Automata (PDA) are a way to represent the language class called Context Free Languages(CFLs). PDA are abstract devices defined in automata theory. They are similar to Finite Automata(FA), except that they have access to a potentially unlimited amoun of memeory in the form of a single stack. PDA are of two types Deterministic and Non-Deterministic. Every PDA excepts a Formal Language. The language accepted by non-deterministic PDA are precisly the CFLs. If we allow a finite automaton to access two stack instead of just one, we obtain a device much more powerful than a PDA, equivalent to a Turing Machine(TM).

What you mean by Finite Automata?

Finite automata are machines used to recognize patterns from input set of characters. They either reject or accept inputs based on the already defined pattern set by the FA.


What study in logic and automata?

Studying logic in the context of automata theory typically involves exploring formal languages, regular and context-free grammars, finite automata, and Turing machines. It aims to understand how logic can be used to model computation and language recognition, leading to applications in areas such as compiler design, artificial intelligence, and formal verification. This field provides fundamental tools for analyzing the computational capabilities of machines and systems.


Define the languages accepted by NFA and DFA?

In general, finite state machines can model regular grammars. Deterministic finite automata can represent deterministic context-free grammars. Non-deterministic finite automata can represent context-free grammars.
