NFA wherein transition arrows may have any regular expressions as labels.
Special Form:
1. There are transitions going from the initial state to all other states, and there
are no transitions into the initial state.
2. There is a single accept state that has only transitions coming into it (and no
outgoing transitions).
3. The accept state is distinct from the initial state.
4. Except for the initial and accepting states, all other states are connected to all
other states via a transition. In particular, each state has a transition to itself.
Thus, the automata is equivalent to the regular expression (ab*a U b)(a U b)*.
