In the theory of computation, a branch of theoretical computer science, a deterministic finite automaton (DFA)-also known as deterministic finite acceptor (DFA), deterministic finite-state machine (DFSM), or deterministic finite-state automaton (DFSA)-is a finite-state machine that accepts or rejects a given string of symbols, by running through a state sequence uniquely determined by the string.
