Mca 2 Sem Introduction To Automata Theory and Languages Rca 203 2016 17

This document contains an exam for an Introduction to Automata Theory and Languages course. It has three sections: Section A contains short answer questions defining concepts like DFAs, Mealy machines, context-free grammars, regular grammars, and pushdown automata. Section B contains longer questions involving constructing machines and grammars, including a Mealy machine, minimum state automaton, and language generated by a context-free grammar. Section C contains two essay questions, one showing the halting problem of Turing machines is undecidable and another reducing a grammar to Chomsky Normal Form.
