(3) Assume data if required.
(4) Figures to the right indicate full marks.
1 (a) State and Prove the pumping lemma for the regular grammar.(5 marks) 1 (b) Explain different types of techniques for Turing Machine Construction.(5 marks) 1 (c) Compare and Contrast Mealy Machine and Moore Machine(5 marks) 1 (d) Prove that it is undecidable whether context free grammar is ambiguous.(5 marks) 2 (a) Write a regular expression for the following languages:
i. The set of all the strings such that the number of 0's is odd.

2 (b) Convert the following NFA to DFA P is the initial state r and s it the final state.

δ 0 1
→ p {p,r} {q}
q {r,s} {p}
r {p,s} {r}
s {q,r} {}
