What does the language {a, b, c}* exactly mean? How will the automaton for this look like?
Any finite words composed of the characters $a,b$ &amp; $c$ and the empty word are part of the language $\{a,b,c\}^*$. The automaton has one state which is the starting and ending state. That state has 3 recursive edges which are reading $a$,$b$ and $c$.
