Abstract

A comprehensive understanding of fundamental concepts and basics in any scientific field is necessary for its progress. The continuous growth of computer science topics, both from a descriptive mechanics and a formal descriptive perspective, also demands this. Therefore, this article provides a brief overview of one of the fundamental topics in the field of computational theory (Chomsky hierarchy classification).
