Understanding the Pumping Lemma to Prove Irregularity
Utilizing the Pumping Lemma to demonstrate the irregularity of languages where the condition L>= {aibj, i>j} is not satisfied. The process involves fixing a pumping length, choosing a suitable string from L, and exploring possible splittings of the string to show irregularity.
