Pacquiao's Secret

What's with Manny Pacquiao? Aside from the revealed secrets, is there any hidden truth that make him truimph every battle? Manny Pacquiao is the IBO and Ring junior welterweight champion and the best pound for pound fighter in boxing today.So what’s more to him?

Pacman loves veggies. In an interview, he said, “We should not eat just meat. We need to eat much and different vegetables to have a strong body and resistance.”

A great coach named Roach. Indeed in every great athlete comes a great coach. Manny Pacquiao wouldn’t be on his peak today without a man on his back named, Freddy Roach.

He never forgets to pray. As seen during his fight on the ring, he always has a moment in one corner to pray before he faces the match.

A big cheer and a big crowd strengthen him. Pacquiao knows he needed his fans support. It’s like a holiday in the Philippines whenever he’s in MGM Grand. There’s an hour of pause in everything. His victory is the Philippine's victory. He even gives tickets to his friends to watch him fight live in Las Vegas.

Pacquiao stays humble inspite of fame.

 I am not really a big fun of manny but I salute on him. He is just an ordinary person with an extraordinay ability. He maximize what has God has given to him. I just hope that he will truly remain his foot on the ground. He can be a good example to our new generation.

Automata: Regular Expression

Usually we prove that a language is not regular by using the Pumping Lemma (PL). But that's not very pleasant. Instead of looking at regular expressions, let's look at finite automata. A finite automaton has a finite number of states, and states is all you have in order to keep track of what you've done so far and, therefore, of what need to be done.

Here are some of the problems that our instructor Prof. Larmie Feliscuzo Santos give us that makes me bleed and I even consult it to science forums and here is what the reply....

1. regular expression for w contains even number of a's and b's
This is a regular expression because we never need more than 2 bits to remember where we are:
00 = we are OK
01 = we need another 'b'
10 = we need another 'a'
11 = we need another 'a' and another 'b'

Thus, we need 4 states:
OK ----a----> NEEDA
OK ----b----> NEEDB
NEEDA----a---->OK
NEEDA----b---->NEEDA&B
NEEDB----a---->NEEDA&B
NEEDB----b---->OK
NEEDA&B----a--->NEEDB
NEEDA&B----b--->NEEDA

This is tough:
( aa | bb | (ab|ba)(aa+bb)*(ab+ba) )*

2. every a is followed by b
This is simple: we just need one bit:
0 = we don't need a 'b'
1 = we need a 'b' right now

We have 2 states:
OK ----a---->NEEDB_NOW_
OK ----b---->OK
NEEDB_NOW_----b---->OK

(ab|b)*

3. palindrome: w = reverse of w
Impossible. If a string is palindrome and of length n, we need to remember n/2 characters to check that it is really palindrome. That n is unbounded, because if we fix a number of states, then we can enter a string that would need even more states. Remember that states =~ MEMORY.

I guess this is right. Thanks to the scienceforum especially to gandalf23.
