PROGRAM:
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
#include<string.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
void main()
{
char s[20],c;
int state=0,i=0;
clrscr();
printf("\n Enter a string:");
gets(s);
while(s[i]!='\0')
{
switch(state)
{
case 0: c=s[i++];
if(c=='a')
state=1;
else if(c=='b')
state=2;
else
state=6;
break;
case 1: c=s[i++];
if(c=='a')
state=3;
else if(c=='b')
state=4;
else
state=6;
break;
case 2: c=s[i++];
if(c=='a')
state=6;
else if(c=='b')
state=2;
else
state=6;
break;
case 3: c=s[i++];
if(c=='a')
state=3;
else if(c=='b')
state=2;
else
state=6;
break;
case 4: c=s[i++];
if(c=='a')
state=6;
else if(c=='b')
state=5;
else
state=6;
break;
case 5: c=s[i++];
if(c=='a')
state=6;
else if(c=='b')
state=2;
else
state=6;
break;
case 6: printf("\n %s is not recognised.",s);
exit(0);
}
}
if(state==1)
printf("\n %s is accepted under rule 'a'",s);
else if((state==2)||(state==4))
printf("\n %s is accepted under rule 'a*b+'",s);
else if(state==5)
printf("\n %s is accepted under rule 'abb'",s);
getch();
}
Input :
Enter a String: aaaabbbbb
Output:
aaaabbbbb is accepted under rule 'a*b+'
Input :
Enter a string: cdgs
Output:
cdgs is not recognized
