Expert Solution
Step 1: DFA

DFA stands for Deterministic Finite Automata. It is a 5-tuple, 

,M= (Q,, δ, q0,F)where Q : finite nonempty states             : Finite nonempty set of inputs              δ: Transition function               q0: Initial state               F: set of final states

In simple terms, every state must have a transition on each input symbol.
