  Nondeterministic finite state machine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the theory of computation, a nondeterministic finite state machine or nondeterministic finite automaton (NFA) is a finite state machine where for each pair of state and input symbol there may be several possible next states.
For every NFA a deterministic finite state machine (DFA) can be found that accepts the same language.
Therefore it is possible to convert an existing NFA into a DFA for the purpose of implementing a (perhaps) simpler machine.

 Regular expression - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The oldest and fastest relies on a result in formal language theory that allows every Nondeterministic Finite State Machine (NFA) to be transformed into a deterministic finite state machine (DFA).
The other algorithm is to match the pattern against the input string by backtracking.
(This algorithm is sometimes called NFA, but this terminology is highly confusing.) Its running time can be exponential, which simple implementations exhibit when matching against expressions like "(aaa)*b" that contain both alternation and unbounded quantification and force the algorithm to consider an exponential number of subcases.

The incoming Department of Agriculture secretary sought to clarify reports that the NFA was seeking a standby authority to import.

Yap said the request for provisional authority was needed since the NFA did not have any firm indication on the final import volumes to be brought in by the farmers and other private sector groups at that time.

Under the original NFA, an original registrant was not required to provide a photograph or fingerprints; such requirements only applied to a subsequent transfer, provisions that survived during the amnesty period under the National Firearms Act of 1968 (also known as Title II of the Gun Control Act of 1968).
Specifically, a person who possessed an unregistered NFA firearm was required to register it using Form 4467 during the period from November 2, 1968, to December 1, 1968, and was not required to submit fingerprints or a photograph, or pay any tax or fee.
In 1960, the Congress amended the NFA to establish a 26" overall length for a rifle or shotgun to be exempt from the NFA, a 16" minimum barrel length for an exempt rifle, and a $5 transfer tax for all AOWs

 (GCJYD2) Rupert's Cash Cache by NFA

it is my opinion that the reason NFA wanted to come along with us was because we had invested so much time and evergy solving his puzzle and he wanted to be there to see us at the end.
