The Resurrection of AUTOMATA

I graduated from my course without dealing with AUTOMATA (because we were hooked with the old curriculum). The first time I saw its book was when I had my first job and was tasked to teach such subject. It caught me in awe knowing I don't possess or own any little bit discernment about it. Well, that time was a challenge for me.

I took it, bearing a nutshell about the said subject.

While I opened the book I read the Preface Part and the Introduction (well it is still important to know what you're eating eh?) and appeared a very lengthy blah blah in which I opted to scan over the pages.

What I have seen were symbols and letters and those curved arrows ewww! i don't intend to suffer and burn my soul with these after gaining low grades in mathematics in college. Well, AUTOMATA is not a full mathematics but hey! Imagine! crooking with this kind of whatever-letting-yourself-understand is new to me. I still need a skilled demon to at least give me brief idea of what are these things all about?

That was what happened before, to make it short, I don't have any choice but swallow and digest on whatever is being fed by my understanding.

I devoted the most of my time learning it. and I did, It was fun and I realize its relevance and relations with computers.

Duh! I was even thinking searching item at any search engines is an example of it, even the program source codes checking and everything that revolves around computer operation was made through the concept of automata

I did learn a lot, I admit I did.

I was having a good time divulging more until I reached to the topic when the duration was over.

2 years of absence kissing with AUTOMATA, now is the time to make it rise again.

Self-taught will make you feel genius once in while ;)
