Convert Regular Expression to Epsilon NFA | Thompson's Construction | With Examples

Описание: 🎓 In this video, we explore how to convert a Regular Expression into an Epsilon-NFA (ε-NFA) using Thompson's Construction, step-by-step.

📘 Topics Covered:
• What is a Regular Expression?
• What is an ε-NFA?
• Why do we convert Regex to ε-NFA?
