Convert this grammar to language












0












$begingroup$


I want to convert the following grammar to language but I am not able to think and answer.



$$S to aSa mid bSa mid ab mid ba$$



It gives me a lot of choices when I tried building its derivation tree.

          Welcome to MSE. There is basically one case:



          Start either with $Srightarrow^* a^mSa^m$ or $Srightarrow^* b^nSa^n$ and alternate and finally replace $S$ either by $ab$ or $ba$. This gives the language
          $${a^{n_1} b^{n_2} ldots a^{n_{k-1}} b^{n_k} (ab)
          a^{n_k} a^{n_{k-1}} ldots a^{n_2} a^{n_1}mid n_1,ldots,n_kgeq 0, kgeq 0}$$

          union with
          $${a^{n_1} b^{n_2} ldots a^{n_{k-1}} b^{n_k} (ba)
          a^{n_k} a^{n_{k-1}} ldots a^{n_2} a^{n_1}mid n_1,ldots,n_kgeq 0, kgeq 0}.$$
