For a non-negative integer k, we say that a language L is
k-poly-slender if the number of words of length n in L
is of order . We give a precise characterization of the
k-poly-slender context-free languages. The well-known characterization
of the k-poly-slender regular languages is an immediate consequence
of ours.
