FINDING FIRST OF NON-TERMINALS FROM DATE:

THE GIVEN PRODUCTIONS/ GRAMMAR PAGE NO.:


TASK NO.:

AIM:
Write a python program to find the first of non-terminals from the given
productions/grammar.

PROGRAM:
def first(grammar, non_terminal, visited=None):
if visited is None:
visited = set()
first_set = set()

# If non-terminal is a terminal, return {non_terminal}


if non_terminal not in grammar:
return {non_terminal}

# If non-terminal has been visited before, return its first set


if non_terminal in visited:
return first_set

visited.add(non_terminal)

# Iterate over productions for the non-terminal


for production in grammar[non_terminal]:
# For each symbol in the production
for symbol in production:
# If symbol is a terminal, add it to the first set and break
if symbol not in grammar:
first_set.add(symbol)
break
# If symbol is a non-terminal, recursively find its first set
else:
# If epsilon is in the first set of this non-terminal, continue to the next symbol
if 'ε' in first(grammar, symbol, visited):
first_set |= (first(grammar, symbol, visited) - {'ε'})
else:
first_set |= first(grammar, symbol, visited)
break
else:
# If the loop completes without encountering a non-terminal without epsilon, add
epsilon to the first set
first_set.add('ε')
return first_set

def main():
grammar = {}
non_terminals = set()

# Take input for the grammar


while True:
production = input("Enter production (or type 'done' to finish): ").strip()
if production.lower() == 'done':
break
head, body = production.split('->')
head = head.strip()
body = [symbol.strip() for symbol in body.split('|')]
non_terminals.add(head)
if head in grammar:
grammar[head].extend(body)
else:
grammar[head] = body

# Find first sets for all non-terminals


for non_terminal in non_terminals:
first_set = first(grammar, non_terminal)
print(f"First({non_terminal}):", first_set)

if _name_ == "_main_":
main()

EXECUTED INPUT AND OUTPUT:


Enter production (or type 'done' to finish): A->abc
Enter production (or type 'done' to finish): A->def
Enter production (or type 'done' to finish): A->ghi
Enter production (or type 'done' to finish): done
First(A): {'g', 'd', 'a'}

Process finished with exit code 0

RESULT:
Program to find the first of the non-terminals from the given grammar/productions have
been executed successfully.
