Peter Linz's An Introduction to Formal Languages and Automata is a foundational undergraduate text organizing the theory of computation through languages, grammars, and recognizing automata. The text structures complexity using the Chomsky hierarchy, ranging from regular languages to Turing machines, while addressing advanced topics like decidability and computational complexity. Further details can be found in the 7th edition available through sources such as Jones & Bartlett Learning .
