Can't seem to answer these questions, I'm sure the answers are out there somewhere but I don't really know what keywords to use to find them. Any answers or good sites/ documentation would be much appreciated. And please don't say wikipedia, the language used is a bit out of my comprehension at this moment. - Is it correct to assume that an NFA can be converted into multiple versions of a DFA? - Are there different methods for doing so and would they all be considered correct assuming they give different answers? - If an NFA has the transition relation **d{ (q0,e,q1), (q1,e,q1), (q1,e,q2) }** would it be correct to write it out as **d(q0,e,q2)**? (e standing for epsilon, q0 being initial state and q2 being final) - Is it correct to assume that every state in an NFA has a "hidden" e transition? Essentially can you assume that every state in an NFA has an e* transition. - Is it bad practice when converting to have multiple NFA states as one DFA state? Alternatively is there some way I can test my conversions out and make sure they are correct either using a program or some other way. Apologies for the noobiness of the questions.
