To convert a right linear grammar to a nondeterministic finite automaton (NFA), you can create states in the NFA corresponding to the variables and terminals in the grammar. Then, for each production rule in the grammar, you can create transitions in the NFA based on the right-hand side of the rule. This process allows you to represent the grammar as an NFA that can recognize the same language.

To convert regular grammar into a nondeterministic finite automaton (NFA), each production rule in the grammar is represented as a transition in the NFA. The start symbol of the grammar becomes the start state of the NFA, and the accepting states of the NFA correspond to the final states of the grammar. The NFA can then recognize strings that are generated by the regular grammar.
To convert a deterministic finite automaton (DFA) to a pushdown automaton (PDA), you need to add a stack to keep track of the state transitions. The PDA uses the stack to store and retrieve symbols, allowing for more complex computations than a DFA. This conversion involves modifying the transition functions and adding stack operations to handle the additional complexity of the PDA.
To convert a deterministic finite automaton (DFA) to a regular expression, you can use the state elimination method. This involves eliminating states one by one until only the start and accept states remain, and then combining the transitions to form a regular expression that represents the language accepted by the DFA.
NFA - Non-deterministic Finite Automaton, aka NFSM (Non-deterministic Finite State Machine)
A biautomaton is a finite automaton which arbitrarily alternates between reading the input from the left and from the right.
