Give a recursive definition for an (where n=1,2,3,...) if an=2n+5
A set SS of strings of characters is defined recursively by
aa and bb belong to SS .
If xx belongs to SS , so does xbxb .
Which one of the following strings belong to SS ?
this is the Group of answer choices
1. aba

5. a
Give a recursive definition for the set of all strings of a’s and b’s that begins with an a and ends in a b.
Say, S = { ab, aab, abb, aaab, aabb, abbb, abab..}
Let S be the set of all strings of a’s and b’s that begins with a and ends in a b. The recursive definition is as follows –
Base:...
Recursion: If u ∈ S, then...
Restriction: There are no elements of S other than those obtained from the base and recursion of S.
