If n = , then the stack is popped. q0: The start state.0 : Initially, the PDA’s stack consists this symbol and nothing else.F : The set of accepting states.PDA Example:}1)(0 |{* wwwLRwwrThe language, Lwwr, is the even-length palindromes over alphabet {0,1}.Lwwr is a Context-Free Language (CFL) generated by the grammar:|11|00 SSS One PDA for Lwwr is given on the following slide...PDA for Lwwr)1,(),1,()0,(),0,()100000000qqqq )11,()1,1,()10,()0,1,()01,()1,0,()00,()0,0,()200000000qqqqqqqq)1,()1,,()0,()0,,(),(),,()310100100qqqqqq ),()1,1,(),()0,0,()41111qqqq ),(),,()50201qq ),(),utEnd_Of_InpRead_Past_,()60302qq }{},1,0{}1,0{},,,{303210qFqqqqQ FqQP , , , , , ,00A Graphical Notation for PDA’s1. The nodes correspond to the states of the PDA.2. An arrow labeled Start indicates the unique start state.3. Doubly circled states are accepting states.4. Edges correspond to transitions in the PDA as follows: 5. An edge labeled (ai, m)/n from state q to state p means that (q, ai, m) contains the pair (p, n), perhaps among other pairs.Graphical Notation for PDA of Lwwrq0q1q2q3start(ε, 0) / 0(ε, ) / (ε, 1) / 1(0,0)/ε(1,1)/ε(ε,0) / 0(EOF,0) / 0All possibilities that do not have explicit edges, have implicit edges that go to an implicit reject state.•This is a nondeterministic machine. •Think of the machine as following all possible paths. •Kill a path if it leads to a reject state. •If any path leads to an accept state, then the machine accepts.(0, 0)/00(0, 1)/01(1, 0)/10(1, 1)/11(0, 0)/00(1, 0)/10Exercise 1Design a PDA that recognizes legal sequences of ‘if’ and ‘else’ statements in a C program.In the PDA, let ‘i’ stands for ‘if’ and ‘e’ stands for ‘else’.Hint: There is a problem whenever the number of ‘else’ statements in any prefix exceeds the number of ‘if’ statements in that prefix.Exercise 2Design a PDA to accept the language:}or |{
