GATE 2010 Question

The grammar S→aSa∣bS∣c is 

  1. LL(1) but not LR(1)
  2. LR(1) but not LL(1)
  3. Both LL(1) and LR(1)
  4. Neither LL(1) nor LR(1)

I have 2 small doubt

First Doubt:-If a grammer is LL(1) then it is always LR(0) ? Is there any grammer which is LL(1)  and cannot be parsed by LR(0) ?

Second doubt :- Can any one tell me the above question is write or wrong because they have given LR(1) parser and i haven't heard about LR(1).I have heard about  Brute force ,recursive descent,operator presedence,LL(1) LR(0) SLR(1) LALR(1) CLR(1).So what is the difference between LR(0) AND LR(1) and which one is more powerfull ?

First Doubt : A grammar parsed by LL(1) must also be parsed by LR(1) Parser but may not by LR(0)

For e.g 

S. ---> AaAb 

S ---> BbBa

A ---> €

B ---> €

Second doubt : LR(1) also known as canonical LR(1)

So LR(1) and CLR(1) same.
