  1. Find a regular expression to describe:

The set of all strings over the alphabet {a, b, c, d} that contain exactly one a and exactly one b

So, for example, the following strings are in this language:

  • ab, ba, cccbad, acbd, cabddddd, ddbdddacccc

and the following strings are NOT in this language:

a, ccbc, acbcaaacba, acacac, bcbbbbbca, aca, c, d, b

Consider a set of ? strings over alphabet ? = {?, ?}, defined recursively as follows. ?∈? ? ∈ ? ⟹ ??? ∈ ? Furthermore, ? has no elements other than those obtained by finitely many applications of the recurrence rule given in its definition. For example, the first four elements of ? are ?, ???, ?????, ??????? Use mathematical induction to prove that there are no strings in ? that end in ?. {3 points.
