Learning

Practice Questions

Test your understanding with targeted questions related to the topic.

Question 1

Easy

Define Turing recognizable language.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about what the Turing machine does with strings not in the language.

Question 2

Easy

What is a decidable language?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the behavior of Turing machines in terms of halting.

Question 1

What is a Turing recognizable language?

  • A language that a TM can accept and halts for all inputs.
  • A language that a TM may loop for non-members.
  • A language that always rejects all inputs.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how Turing machines behave with valid vs. invalid inputs.

Question 2

Is the complement of a Turing recognizable language also Turing recognizable?

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Recall the implications of decidability and recognizability.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a Turing recognizable language L, provide an example of a string not in L and discuss its possible outcomes.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Reflect on why incorrect syntax affects recognition.

Question 2

Prove that if a language is Turing recognizable, its complement is not necessarily recognizable by constructing an example.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Utilize properties of the Halting Problem to illustrate non-closure.
