Q5. Let L1 and L2 be two regular languages. What can we say about the language L {w1w2∣w1∈L1,w2∈L2} ?

L may or may not be regular

L is regular

L is not regular

L is accepted by some NFA but there is no DFA that can accept L

Answer: L is regular


Q6. What is the language accepted by the following NFA?

{w∈{0,1}∗∣w ends with 0 and begins with 1}

{w∈{0,1}∗∣w begins with 0 and ends with 1}

{w∈{0,1}∗∣w ends with 0 or begins with 1}

{w∈{0,1}∗∣w begins with 0 or ends with 1}

Answer:{w∈{0,1}∗∣w ends with 0 and begins with 1}

Q7. Consider the language
L={w∈{0,1}∗∣w begins with 00}

How many states will the minimal DFA for L
have?
2
3
4
5

Answer: 2


Q8. Consider the following DFA.

{w∈{0,1}∗∣w has exactly one 1}

{w∈{0,1}∗∣w ends with a 1}

{w∈{0,1}∗∣w begins with a 1}

{w∈{0,1}∗∣w consists of only 1’s}

Answer: {w∈{0,1}∗∣w has exactly one 1}

Q9. The block of code displayed here is meant for the ball, how many loops are there in total?
One
Two
Three
Four

Answer: One


Q10. The block of code displayed here is meant for the ball, if the value beside repeat would have been 1 instead of 2, Select all the statements that explain the situation.
The Ball would not have returned to Cat.
Removing the loop from the code would have made no difference in the result.
The Ball would not have left its original position.
The code would throw an error

Answer: The Ball would not have returned to Cat
Removing the loop from the code would have made no difference in the result.
