Q. Consider the pushdown automaton (PDA) below which runs over the input alphabet (a, b, c). It has the stack alphabet {Z0, X} where Z0 is the bottom-of-stack marker. The set of states of the PDA is (s, t, u, f} where s is the start state and f is the final state. The PDA accepts by final state. The transitions of the PDA given below are depicted in a standard manner. For example, the transition (s, b, X) → (t, XZ0) means that if the PDA is in state s and the symbol on the top of the stack is X, then it can read b from the input and move to state t after popping the top of stack and pushing the symbols Z0 and X (in that order) on the stack.

(s, a, Z0) → (s, XXZ0)
(s, ϵ, Z0) → (f, ϵ)
(s, a, X) → (s, XXX)
(s, b, X) → (t, ϵ)
(t, b, X) → (t,.ϵ)
(t, c, X) → (u, ϵ)
(u, c, X) → (u, ϵ)
(u, ϵ, Z0) → (f, ϵ)
