Which of the following best describes the result of minimizing a Deterministic Finite Automaton (DFA)?

a: The language recognized by the DFA remains unchanged, but the DFA structure becomes more complex. Explanation

Explanation

b: The language recognized by the DFA is preserved, and the DFA structure is simplified with fewer states. Explanation

Explanation

c: Minimization always changes the recognized language to a more complex one. Explanation

Explanation

d: Minimization results in converting the DFA to a Non-Deterministic Finite Automaton (NFA). Explanation

Explanation

What is the purpose of eliminating equivalent states during the minimization of a DFA?

a: To increase the complexity of the DFA. Explanation

Explanation

b: To reduce the number of states without changing the language recognized. Explanation

Explanation

c: To convert the DFA into a Regular Expression. Explanation

Explanation

d: To add more transitions for better recognition. Explanation

Explanation

When is it beneficial to minimize a Deterministic Finite Automaton (DFA) in practical applications?

a: Minimization is always beneficial in all cases. Explanation

Explanation

b: It depends on the size of the original DFA and the application requirements. Explanation

Explanation

c: Minimization is only beneficial for non-regular languages. Explanation

Explanation

d: Minimization is irrelevant for DFA. Explanation
