Question 16

Which one of the following is FALSE?

A
There is unique minimal DFA for every regular language.
B
Every NFA can be converted to an equivalent PDA.
C
Complement of every context-free language is recursive.
D
Every non-deterministic PDA can be converted to an equivalent deterministic PDA.
Question 16 Explanation: 
As we know there are several languages (CFL) for which we only have NPDA, i.e. these languages cannot be recognized by DPDA. For example
L = {wwr | w ϵ {a,b}*} is a CFL but not DCFL, i.e. it can be recognized by NPDA but not by DPDA.
