I have got following question: Determine whether the following language is context free or not: $$L = \{ w \in \{a,b,c\}^*: n_a (w) = n_b (w) = 2n_c (w)\}. $$ What is the meaning of $2n_c$ in the a …

Difference between $a^{2n} b^n$ and $n_a(w) = 2n_b(w)$

I have encountered two questions related to npda: Construct an npda for $L_1 = \{a^{2n} b^n \mid n \geq 0\}$ as a language over $\Sigma = \{a,b,c\}$. Construct an npda for $L_2 = \{w \in \{a, b, c\} …
