[comp.compilers] From type-3 to type-2 grammars

croes@imec.be (02/02/91)

We are searching for references on methods to convert a type-3 (regular)
grammar into a type-2 (context free) grammar, which is not type-3.

The type-2 grammar may recognize more sentences than the type-3 
grammar, but the number of states in the type-2 grammar must be 
less.

This might seem an unconventional question, but it is really this that
we want.
