The unique string with zero symols is clled. The set of ll strings over is clled. Definition: A lnguge over is ny suset of. The decision prolem for lnguge is to input string nd determine whether. Definition: The set of regulr expressions lphet is the smllest set of strings such tht: 1. if then 2. R 3. R 4. if ( "$# % ( &(' % (c " then so re the following: over 5
