Write formal descriptions of the following sets.
In certain programming languages, comments appear between delimiters such as #and . Let Cbe the language of all valid delimited comment strings. A member of Cmust begin with and end with but have no intervening . For simplicity, assume that the alphabet for Cis .
a. Give aDFA that recognizes C.
b. Give a regular expression that generates C.
A Turing machine with left reset is similar to an ordinary Turing machine, but the transition function has the form
δ : Q × Γ−→Q × Γ × {R, RESET}.
If δ(q, a) = (r, b, RESET), when the machine is in state q reading an a, the machine’s head jumps to the left-hand end of the tape after it writes b on the tape and enters state r. Note that these machines do not have the usual ability to move the head one symbol left. Show that Turing machines with left reset recognize the class of Turing-recognizable languages.
Myhill–Nerode theorem. Refer to Problem . Let L be a language and let X be a set of strings. Say that X is pairwise distinguishable by L if every two distinct strings in X are distinguishable by L. Define the index of L to be the maximum number of elements in any set that is pair wise distinguishable by L . The index of L may be finite or infinite.
a. Show that if L is recognized by a DFA with k states, L has index at most k.
b. Show that if the index of L is a finite number K , it is recognized by a DFA with k states.
c. Conclude that L is regular iff it has finite index. Moreover, its index is the size of the smallest DFA recognizing it.
Let X be the set and Y be the set .The unary function and the binary function are described in the following tables.
a. What is the value of ?
b.What are the range and domain of f?
c. What is the value of g (2, 10) ?
d. What are the range and domain ofg?
e. What is the value ofg(4, f (4))?
