For example, a paper in 1999 described how JFLAP now allowed one to experiment with construction type proofs, such as converting an NFA to a DFA to a minimal state DFA, and as another example, converting NPDA to CFG and vice versa. [6] In 2002 JFLAP was converted to Swing. In 2005-2007 a study was run with fourteen institutions using JFLAP.
Liniment (from Latin: linere, meaning "to anoint"), also called embrocation and heat rub, is a medicated topical preparation for application to the skin. Some liniments have a viscosity similar to that of water; others are lotion or balm; still, others are in transdermal patches, soft solid sticks, and sprays. Liniment usually is rubbed into ...
