🤖 Automata Simulator

An automata simulator.

🧠 Overview

This is a simulator for various types of automata, built with TypeScript. It allows you to define, visualize, and simulate the behavior of finite state machines:

• ✅ DFA (Deterministic Finite Automaton)
• 🔀 NFA (Non-deterministic Finite Automaton)

✨ Features

• 🔄 Finite State Automata Simulation
  Supports both DFA and NFA simulations.

• 🎨 Visualization
  See the automaton graphically and follow transitions live.

• ⏱️ Step-by-step Execution
  Simulate your automaton one step at a time for better understanding.

• 🧾 Clear Results
  Displays simulation results in a user-friendly format.

💻 Local Installation

1. Prerequisites

   • Node.js (v14 or newer)
   • npm (comes with Node.js)

2. Clone the repository

   git clone https://github.com/guychuk/automata-simulator.git
   cd automata-simulator

3. Install dependencies

   npm install

4. Build the project

   npm run build

   This creates a dist folder with compiled files.

5. Run locally

   • Open dist/index.html in your browser.

6. Or start a local dev server

   npm run serve

   • Visit http://localhost:8080

🧪 Usage

1. Define your automaton:

   • Enter your alphabet, states, initial state, accepting states, and transitions.
   • Submit using the "Submit Automaton" button.
   • Use an empty string for ε-transitions: q0,,q2

2. Run the simulator:

   • Enter your input string.
   • (Optional) Adjust step duration.
   • Click "Run" to start simulation.

🎥 Demo

This shows an automaton checking if a binary number is divisible by 3.

• 1010 (10) → ❌ Not divisible
• 1011 (11) → ❌ Not divisible
• 1100 (12) → ✅ Divisible
