Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a DFA with 5 states where transitions lead to cycles, determine how many indistinguishable states exist based on provided acceptance strings.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Look for cycles that may cause states to behave similarly.

Question 2

Consider two distinct DFAs. Using the Myhill-Nerode Theorem, discuss their regularity and provide justification for your conclusion.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Analyze how the strings are grouped under both DFAs.
