#1. Let G = (V, T, S, P ) be a grammar where V = {S, A, B, a, b} is the vocabulary and T = {a, b} is the
set of terminal elements. Determine whether the following set of productions is a:
(i) a type 0 grammar, but not a type 1 grammar.
(ii) a type 1 grammar, but not a type 2 grammar.
(iii) a type 2 grammar, but not a type 3 grammar.
S → ABA, A → bB, B → ba.

Solution:
It is a type 2 grammar because the left side of each production has a single nonterminal symbol. It is not a
type 3 grammar because of the form of the right side of the third production.

#2. Let G = (V, T, S, P ) be a grammar where V = {S, A, B, a, b} is the vocabulary and T = {a, b} is the
set of terminal elements. Determine whether the following set of productions is a:
(i) a type 0 grammar, but not a type 1 grammar.
(ii) a type 1 grammar, but not a type 2 grammar.
(iii) a type 2 grammar, but not a type 3 grammar.
S → AB, B → bAa, bAa → a.

Solution:
It is automatically a type 0 grammar. It is not a type 1 grammar because the third production is not
noncontracting.
