Isn't this a case of simple Mealy machine?
Q = {q0, q1}
Q0 = q0
S = {1, b, c}
O = {"b", "c", "bb", "bc", "cc", "cb".... }
D =
                    q0 q1
      +------------------------
a | q0 q0
b | q1 q1
c | q1 q1




G =
                    q0 q1
        +------------------------
q0 | print() print()
q0 | append() append()
q0 | append() append()




=> Class-3, RegEx?
