VTU | 5th Sem TOC | DFA Minimization using Table Filling Algorithm | Module 2 | R.E & F.A | BCS503

Welcome to Express VTU 4 All 🎓

In this video, we solve one of the most important and frequently asked VTU questions from Module-02: Regular Expressions & Finite Automata under Theory of Computation (BCS503).

We minimize the given DFA using the Table Filling Algorithm, also called the Myhill–Nerode Distinguishable Pair Method — a guaranteed exam question in VTU CSE 5th sem.

✅ Question:

Minimize the following DFA using Table Filling Algorithm.
The transition table provided contains states A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H with transitions on inputs 0 and 1.

This video includes:

Drawing the state table

Marking distinguishable pairs

Filling the table step-by-step

Finding equivalent states

Constructing minimized DFA

VTU exam format presentation
