Expert Solution
Step 1

Introduction:

It is possible to prove that the language L2 = {w E {0, 1}+ | w starts and ends with the same symbol} is regular. To do this, we must show that L2 can be denoted by a finite-state machine (FSM).

A functional state machine (FSM) is a mathematical model made up of states, transitions, and input symbols. These components can be used to represent any regular language. To represent L2, we must create an FSM that recognises all of the language's strings.
