That is amazing. Sadly, minimizeFSA and equalFSA is not completely implemented. However, we are currently working on fixing equalFSA (now EqualFSA.js under fsa2), but have no immediate plans yet for minimizeFSA. Since we have refactored much of the FSA code, these functions would probably benefit more from a complete rewrite than fixing its current issues. Please email me if you have further questions.
I talked to Professor Minnes on Friday and she said that I could contribute to FlapJS by writing DFA minimization and equivalence code. What exactly needs to done on this front? I've notice that the option to optimize equivalent states seems to be currently (purposely?) disabled in the UI. I've also looked at the code in src/app/machine/util/minimizeFSA.js, and it seems like the algorithm there should work, although it is slightly different from the one suggested by Wikipedia.
What exactly has to be done to get this working? Is it just a matter of fixing bugs in the algorithm and re-enabling the UI option, or is it slightly more involved?
