GOLD-Python

GOLD-Python is a port of the GOLD programming language's Finite Automata features to Python 3.10 for a better developer experience.

How to install

pip install gold-python

Using the library:

def main():
    automaton = createAutomaton()
    print(automaton.acceptsInput(input("Enter: ")))
    automaton.show()


def createAutomaton():
    Q = product(between(0, 7), between(0, 1))
    E = "01"
    Q0 = (0, 0)
    F = [(0, 0)]

    return DeterministicAutomata(Q, E, Q0, F, delta)

@deltafunc
def delta(x, y, next):
    d = int(next)
    if (x, y) == (0, 1):
        return (0, 1)
    elif x==7:
        return (0, 0) if (d-y==0) else (0, 1)
    else:
        return (x+1, (y+d) % 2)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

Features:

• Better Syntax Autocompletion
• Support for types
• Docstrings for most functions
• Documentation in HTML (work in progress)

Progress:

• Deterministic Finite State Automata
• Deterministic Transducer (Mealey)
• Basic Set Operations (Between, Product)
• Non-Deterministic Finite State Automata
• Pushdown Automata
• Advanced Set Operations (String ranges, Parts of sets, etc)
• GUI Interface to show Automata
• Full documentation in Sphinx (Progress: 0%)
• Release
