    \emph{Show that the following language is context-free:}
    \begin{talign}
      L = \Sigma^* \setminus \{\, ww \mid w \in \Sigma^* \,\}
    \end{talign}
    where $\Sigma = \{a,b\}$.
    \pause
    What shape do words $w \in L$ have?
    \begin{itemize}
    \pause
      \item $w$ has \emph{odd length}; \vspace{-.5ex}
    \pause
      \item $w$ has \emph{even length} such that \pause $w = uv$ with $|u| = |v|$ and \pause %\vspace{-.5ex}
        \begin{talign}
          u(m) \ne v(m)
        \end{talign}
        for some $0 \le m < |u|$. \pause Let $n = |u| - m-1$. Then $w$ is in 
        \begin{talign}
          \begin{aligned}
            &\,\Sigma^m \, \{\,a\,\} \, \Sigma^n \,\, \Sigma^m \, \{\,b\,\} \, \Sigma^n \\

    We give a context-free grammar for the language:
    \begin{talign}
      S &\to AB \mid BA \mpause[1]{\mid A \mid B} &
      A &\to XAX \mid a & X \to a \mid b\\
      &&
      B &\to XBX \mid b
