Question 7

Which one of the following regular expressions represents the set of all binary strings with an odd number of 1’s?

A
10*(0*10*10*)*
B
((0 + 1)*1(0 + 1)*1)*10*
C
(0*10*10*)*10*
D
(0*10*10*)*0*1
Question 7 Explanation: 
The regular expression 10*(0*10*10*)* always generate string begin with 1 and thus does not generate string “01110” hence wrong option.
The regular expression ((0+1)*1(0+1)*1)*10* generate string “11110” which is not having odd number of 1’s , hence wrong option.
The regular expression (0*10*10*)10* is not a generating string “01”. Hence this is also wrong . It seems none of them is correct.
NOTE: Option 3 is most appropriate option as it generates the max number of strings with odd 1’s.
But option 3 is not generating odd strings. So, still it is not completely correct.
The regular expression (0*10*10*)*0*1 always generates all string ends with “1” and thus does not generate string “01110” hence wrong option.
