Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Create a DFA with at least three states where the language is empty. Describe the structure and transitions.

💡 Hint: Think about paths and connections; if they don't lead to final states, the language remains empty.

Challenge 2 Hard

Given a DFA with a certain configuration, show how to determine if any strings can lead to acceptance and the language is non-empty.

💡 Hint: Visualize traversing through the state diagram.
