Find First Function

 First (α) is a set of all Terminals that may be in beginning in any


sentential form, derived from α.
 First (α) is calculated for both Terminals and Non- Terminals.
 If α is a Terminals, then
 First (α) = {α}
 If α is a strings of Terminals e.g. abc
 First (abc) = {a}
Find First Function
 If α is a Non-Terminals, defined by α → ε, then
 First (α) = {ε}
 If α is a Non-Terminals, defined by α → β, β ϵ T
 First (α) = {β}
Find First Function Rules
 If α is a Non-Terminals, defined by , then
 First (α) = {}
 Iff → ! ϵ
 First (α) = [First ( U First (] - ϵ
 Iff → ϵ && Iff → ! ϵ
First (α) = [First ( U First ( U First (] - ϵ
 Iff → ϵ && Iff → ϵ && Iff → ! ϵ
First (α) = [First ( U First ( U First (
 Iff → ϵ && Iff → ϵ && Iff → ! ϵ

Find Follow Function
 Follow(A) is the set of all terminals that may follow to the right of (A) in any
form of sentential Grammar.
 Rules:
 If A is the start symbol then Follow(A) = {$}
 If A → αAβ, β → ! ϵ
 Follow (A) = First (β)
 If S → αA
 Follow (A) = Follow(S)
 S → αAβ, Where β → ϵ
 Follow(A) = First(β) U Follow - ϵ
Example
S→ε
 First(S) = Follow(S) =

S → aA
A → bA / ε
 First(S) = Follow(S) =
 First(A) = Follow(A) =
Example
S → AaBb / BbAa
A→ ε
B→ ε
 First(S) = Follow(S) =
