As there are four detailed following that sentence.
Helps the inputs stand out from text, and in keeping with the rest of the surrounding text.
If "a" must be followed by "b", then "bbb" would not be accepted, whereas "abb" (already listed) and "bab" would be accepted. So, changed "bbb" to "bab".
The double quotes inside the text end up ending the definition early, truncating the output. This might not be an ideal fix, but at least makes the text display for now.

The fix for making the Finite State Automaton glossary entry display was to switch double quotes to single inside the definition, which might not be quite as you'd like. However, there doesn't seem to be a way to escape the double quote, it's treated as ending the glossary definition early, so seemed preferable in that it at least makes all the text appear for now.
