Well, there you go then. I did make an effort to find what I'd done online, but since there is no explicit "minimization" step in the way I've phrased my algorithm I probably didn't stand a chance. Apparently that DFA minimization thing is on any Computer Science degree course, which of course I've never taken (I only discovered state machines as a concept about six months ago).
Thanks for reading, everybody.
- Twisol 16y agoAt least you know for sure that what you came up with was worth coming up with. ;) I do that all the time, and it's a mixed bag of pride and annoyance.
- jacquesm 16y agoAt this rate you'll be coming up with original stuff before long. 6 months from discovering state machines to here is pretty impressive. Definitely don't let it stop you that this was already done before, keep at it!
