3. A → 0A1 A → B B → # CONTEXT-FREE GRAMMARS A  0A1  00A11  00B11  00#11 A derives 00#11 in 4 steps. The language of G is the set of strings derived by S.

6. Definition. T is a parse tree for the derivation S ⇒ * w under grammar G = (V,Σ,R,S) if 1. The root of T has label S 2. The leaves of T have labels w i ∈ Σ 4. For each node with label v ∈ V and children with labels r i ∈ (V ∪ Σ), (v→r) ∈ R. 3. The non-leaf nodes have labels v ∈ V

9. A Language is generated by a CFG  It is recognized by a PDA  Suppose L is generated by a CFG G = (V, Σ, R, S) Construct P = (Q, Σ, Γ, , q, F) that recognizes L Idea: P will derive w ∈ L on its stack.

10. Suppose L is generated by a CFG G = (V, Σ, R, S) Construct P = (Q, Σ, Γ, , q, F) that recognizes L (1) Place the marker symbol $ and the start variable on the stack (2) Repeat forever: (a) If v is in the stack, and (v → s) ∈ R, push s on the stack (b) If stack is a string, goto (3) (3) Loop until stack is empty: (a) if top of stack matches input, pop. (b) on (ε,$), accept.

11. Suppose L is generated by a CFG G = (V, Σ, R, S) Construct P = (Q, Σ, Γ, , q, F) that recognizes L (q start ) Push S$ and go to q loop (q loop ) Repeat the following steps forever: (a) On (ε,v) where (v → s) ∈ R, push s and go to q loop (b) On ( ,  ), pop  and go to q loop (c) On (ε,$) go to q accept (else) get stuck!

15. A Language is generated by a CFG  It is recognized by a PDA  Given PDA P = (Q, Σ, Γ, , q, F) Construct a CFG G = (V, Σ, R, S) such that L(G)=L(P) First, simplify P so that: (1) It has a single accept state, q accept (2) It empties the stack before accepting (3) Each transition either pushes a symbol or pops a symbol, but not both

19. A pq generates all strings that take P from p to q without changing the stack Let x be such a string P’s first move on x must be a push P’s last move on x must be a pop Consider the stack while reading x.
