Question 1

What defines a DFA's deterministic nature?

  • Multiple next states for each input
  • Only one next state for each state-input pair
  • No states at all

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about predictability in transitions.

Question 2

True or False: Every regular language can be recognized by a DFA.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the definition of regular languages.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a DFA that recognizes strings containing an odd number of '1's over the alphabet {0, 1}. Explain your choice of states and transitions.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how the state changes with each input symbol.

Question 2

Using the Pumping Lemma, prove that L = {a^n b^n | n β‰₯ 0} is not a regular language.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about what happens when you try to pump 'y'.
