About this MCQ
This Hard Theory of Computation (Automata) MCQ checks one syllabus fact.
The question is: “What is Epsilon transition primarily used for?”
The accepted answer is C. A transition in a non-deterministic automaton that occurs without consuming any input symbol.. A transition in a non-deterministic automaton that occurs without consuming any input symbol is the fact required by What is Epsilon transition primarily used for option C Option A A finite-state machine whose output values are determined solely by its current state does not match the stem it is a near-miss used to catch incomplete recall of A transition in a non-deterministic automaton that occurs without consuming any input symbol Option B A grammar for which some string can be generated by more than one distinct derivation tree does not match the stem it is a near-miss used to catch incomplete recall of A transition in a non-deterministic automaton that occurs without consuming any input symbol Remaining alternatives A property.
- A. A finite-state machine whose output values are determined solely by its current state.
Why not A: “A finite-state machine whose output values are determined solely by its current state.” is not correct. The accepted answer is C. A transition in a non-deterministic automaton that occurs without consuming any input symbol.. A transition in a non-deterministic automaton that occurs without consuming any input symbol is the fact required by What is Epsilon transition primarily used for option C Option A
- B. A grammar for which some string can be generated by more than one distinct derivation tree.
Why not B: “A grammar for which some string can be generated by more than one distinct derivation tree.” is not correct. The accepted answer is C. A transition in a non-deterministic automaton that occurs without consuming any input symbol.. A transition in a non-deterministic automaton that occurs without consuming any input symbol is the fact required by What is Epsilon transition primarily used for option C Option A
- C. A transition in a non-deterministic automaton that occurs without consuming any input symbol. ✓
- D. A property used to prove that certain languages are not regular by showing they cannot be 'pumped' while remaining in the language.
Why not D: “A property used to prove that certain languages are not regular by showing they cannot be 'pumped' while remaining in the language.” is not correct. The accepted answer is C.
