Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is also offered to the students of the fields other than those the course is directly associated with.

Course objectives
Basic theorems of the classical formal language theory. We put emphasis to basic algorithms and proof techniques.
Learning outcomes
Students will be able to: - define important concepts of theoretical computer science - using abstract computational models - apply the acquired knowledge on concrete examples.
