CS 204 Theory of Computation 
Schedule	: Mondays, 1800H to 2100H  
Semester	: 1st, AY 2021
-2022
 
Instructor	: Henry N. Adorna 
email		: <hnadorna@up.edu.ph> 
The theory of computing provides computer science with concepts, models, and formalisms for reasoning about the resources needed to carry out computations and about the efficiency of the computations that use these resources. In addition, it provides tools to measure the difficulty of combinatorial problems both absolutely and in comparison with the other problems
