 \item Assume the concatenation operation of two strings is written as
   $s_1 @ s_2$. Define the operation of \emph{concatenating}, written
-  $\_ \,@\, \_$ two sets of strings.

 \item How many regular expressions are there to match the string
   $abc$? How many if they cannot include $\epsilon$ and $\varnothing$?
   How many if they are also not allowed to contain stars? How many if
