 1.V is a finite set called the variables,
 2. is a finite set, disjoint from V, called the terminals,
 3.R is a finite set of rules, with each rule being a variable and a string of variables and terminals, and
 4.SV is the start variable
 1. Element [[latex2($V$)]] is a finite set called the variables,
 1. Element [[latex2($\Sigma$)]] is a finite set, disjoint from [[latex2($V$)]], called the terminals,
 1. Element [[latex2($R$)]] is a finite set of rules, with each rule being a variable and a string of variables and terminals, and
 1. Element [[latex2($S \in V$)]] is the start variable

An example of a rule is

[[latex2($A \rightarrow aBa$)]]
[[latex2($B \rightarrow \epsilon$)]]

Context Free Grammar

Def: For every ContextFreeLanguage there is a ContextFreeGrammar that generates it and a PushDownAutomata that recognizes it.

A context-free grammar is a 4-tuple latex2($(V,\Sigma,R,S)$), where

  1. Element latex2($V$) is a finite set called the variables,

  2. Element latex2($\Sigma$) is a finite set, disjoint from latex2($V$), called the terminals,

  3. Element latex2($R$) is a finite set of rules, with each rule being a variable and a string of variables and terminals, and

  4. Element latex2($S \in V$) is the start variable

An example of a rule is

latex2($A \rightarrow aBa$) latex2($B \rightarrow \epsilon$)
