check if two regular expressions are equivalent

PDF	Testing the equivalence of regular expressions These are the running times of two methods for checking the equivalence of regular expressions One uses the equivalent minimal DFA the other is the direct

What is an example of a regular expression equivalence?
Two regular expressions are equivalent if languages generated by them are same.
For example, (a+b*)* and (a+b)* generate same language.
Every string which is generated by (a+b*)* is also generated by (a+b)* and vice versa.
Syntax: How to Match a String to a Regular Expression
Is the character string to match.
For example, the regular expression '^Ste(vph)en$' matches values starting with Ste followed by either ph or v, and ending with en.
Note: The output value is numeric.

How do you prove the equivalence of two regular expressions?

The first is just a shorthand notation for the second.
Two regular expressions R and T are equivalent if the language defined by R (i.e., the set of strings generated by regular expression R) is equal to the language defined by T.
To prove equivalences for regular expressions, we use containment proofs from set theory._{22 jan. 2012}

How do you prove two regular languages are equal?

One way to prove that two regular expressions r1,r2 generate the same language is to show both inclusions: Show that if w is generated by r1 then it is generated by r2.
Show that if w is generated by r2 then it is generated by r1._{21 avr. 2022}

We say that two regular expressions R and S are equivalent if they describe the same language. In other words, if L(R) = L(S) for two regular expressions R and S then R = S.
