The number of distinct Dyck words with exactly n pairs of parentheses is the n-th Catalan number. Notice that the Dyck language of words with n parentheses pairs is equal to the union, over all possible k, of the Dyck languages of words of n parentheses pairs with k innermost pairs, as defined in
The proof that the language of balanced (i.e., properly nested) parentheses is not regular follows the same idea. Given p {\displaystyle p} , there is a string of balanced parentheses that begins with more than p {\displaystyle p} left parentheses, so that y {\displaystyle y} will consist entirely of left parentheses.
In theoretical computer science and formal language theory, a regular language (also called a rational language) [1] [2] is a formal language that can be defined by a regular expression, in the strict sense in theoretical computer science (as opposed to many modern regular expression engines, which are augmented with features that allow the recognition of non-regular languages).
Lobb numbers form a natural generalization of the Catalan numbers, which count the complete strings of balanced parentheses of a given length. Thus, the nth Catalan number equals the Lobb number L 0,n. [2] They are named after Andrew Lobb, who used them to give a simple inductive proof of the formula for the n th Catalan number. [3]
The set of all possible strings consisting of symbols denoting elements of the magma, and sets of balanced parentheses is called the Dyck language. The total number of different ways of writing n applications of the magma operator is given by the Catalan number C n .

FBI Director Christopher Wray — the Republican whom Trump appointed during his first term after he fired James Comey — would need to resign or be fired for Patel to take his place.
Numeric literals in Python are of the normal sort, e.g. 0, -1, 3.4, 3.5e-8. Python has arbitrary-length integers and automatically increases their storage size as necessary. Prior to Python 3, there were two kinds of integral numbers: traditional fixed size integers and "long" integers of arbitrary size.
