This course is mainly for compiler engineers. However, all curious engineers willing to tackle a complex project building a RegExp machine based on finite automata would find it useful. Notice that this class is not about how to use regular expressions (you should already know what a regular expression is and actively use it on practice as a prerequisite for this class), but rather about how to implement the regular expressions—again, with the goal to study generic complex systems.
