C code implementing a simple DFA

 

Hello freinds, 

Here I am posting my C implementation of DFA shown below. This DFA will accept any string containing 'a's and 'b' and last symbol should be 'a'.

#include <stdio.h>

#define TOTAL_STATES 2

#define FINAL_STATES 1

#define ALPHABET_CHARCTERS 2

#define UNKNOWN_SYMBOL_ERR 0

#define NOT_REACHED_FINAL_STATE 1

#define REACHED_FINAL_STATE 2

enum DFA_STATES{q0,q1};

enum input{a,b};

int Accepted_states[FINAL_STATES]={q1};

char alphabet[ALPHABET_CHARCTERS]={'a','b'};

int Transition_Table[TOTAL_STATES][ALPHABET_CHARCTERS];

int Current_state=q0;

void DefineDFA()

{

    Transition_Table[q0][a] = q1;

    Transition_Table[q0][b] = q0;

    Transition_Table[q1][a] = q1;

    Transition_Table[q1][b] = q0;

}

int DFA(char current_symbol)

{

int i,pos;

    for(pos=0;pos<ALPHABET_CHARCTERS; pos++)

        if(current_symbol==alphabet[pos])   

            break;//stops if any character other than a or b

    if(pos==ALPHABET_CHARCTERS)

         return UNKNOWN_SYMBOL_ERR;

    for(i=0;i<FINAL_STATES;i++)

 if((Current_state=Transition_Table[Current_state][pos])

==Accepted_states[i])

            return REACHED_FINAL_STATE;

    return NOT_REACHED_FINAL_STATE;

}

int main(void)

{

    char current_symbol;

    int result;

    DefineDFA();    //Fill transition table

    printf("Enter a string with 'a' s and 'b's:\n

                Press Enter Key to stop\n");

    while((current_symbol=getchar())!= '\n')

        if((result= DFA(current_symbol))==UNKNOWN_SYMBOL_ERR)

            break;

    switch (result) {

    case UNKNOWN_SYMBOL_ERR:printf("Unknown Symbol %c",

  current_symbol); 

 break;

    case NOT_REACHED_FINAL_STATE:printf("Not accepted"); break;

    case REACHED_FINAL_STATE:printf("Accepted");break;

    default: printf("Unknown Error");

    }

    printf("\n\n\n");

    return 0;

}
