Let Σ = {0, 1). (a) Give a recursive definition of Σ., the set of strings from the alphabet Σ. (b) Prove that for every n E N there are 2" strings of length n in '. (c) Give a recursive definition of I(s), the length of a string s E Σ For a bitstring s, let O(s) and I(s) be number of zeroes and ones, respectively, that occur in s. So for example if s = 01001, then 0(s)...
