# Question 21587: Grammar Qualification Requires Complete Alphabets, Start and Productions [Return to catalogue page 108](https://ocme.evemisslab.com/en/questions/page/108/) [← Question derivation index](https://ocme.evemisslab.com/en/questions/) · [Original question batch](https://ocme.evemisslab.com/en/practice/batch-20261014-advance-20261109-r07-context-free-grammar-foundations/#q-20261014-advance-20261109-r07-context-free-grammar-0012) This teaching derivation has second-context AI mathematical and bilingual semantic review, limited to the model and assumptions stated in this question. It has no human review or new Lean proof and does not promote the original question or MKO to Canonical truth. R0042-21587 · q-20261014-advance-20261109-r07-context-free-grammar-0012 ## Original question and givens Use the complete finite grammar: nonterminals=[S11, A11], terminals=[a11, b11], start=S11, productions=[[S11, [a11, A11]], [A11, [b11, A11]], [A11, []]] and allow_epsilon=true. Alphabets must be unique and disjoint, the start belongs to nonterminals, and each production [lhs,rhs] has exactly one nonterminal lhs and a finite legal-symbol rhs. Empty rhs is permitted only under the explicit epsilon convention. Keep original symbol and production order. Give (nonterminals, terminals, start, productions, allow_epsilon, grammar_qualified, certificate). - G001 — Use the complete finite grammar: nonterminals=[S11, A11], terminals=[a11, b11], start=S11, productions=[[S11, [a11, A11]], [A11, [b11, A11]], [A11, []]] and allow_epsilon=true. Alphabets must be unique and disjoint, the start belongs to nonterminals, and each production [lhs,rhs] has exactly one nonterminal lhs and a finite legal-symbol rhs. Empty rhs is permitted only under the explicit epsilon convention. Keep original symbol and production order. Give (nonterminals, terminals, start, productions, allow_epsilon, grammar_qualified, certificate). ## Definition and scope Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate. - [mko-context-free-grammar](https://ocme.evemisslab.com/en/mko/mko-context-free-grammar/) ## Step-by-step derivation S001 · impliesBefore source operation=cfg-qualification;original snapshot and mathematics retained After explicit ordered source output fields=[nonterminals, terminals, start, productions, allow_epsilon, grammar_qualified, certificate] Conditions: none Keep the original historical interface marker while listing ordered source fields without JavaScript.Tags are not additional evidence;fixed No markers retain their source claim scope.
