There are two types of soup: type A and type B. Initially we haveN
ml of each type of soup. There are four kinds of operations:
When we serve some soup, we give it to someone and we no longer have it. Each turn, we will choose from the four operations with equal probability 0.25. If the remaining volume of soup is not enough to complete the operation, we will serve as much as we can. We stop once we no longer have some quantity of both types of soup.
Note that we do not have the operation where all 100 ml's of soup B are used first.
Return the probability that soup A will be empty first, plus half the probability that A and B become empty at the same time.
Example:
Input:
N = 50
Output:
0.625
Explanation:
If we choose the first two operations, A will become empty first. For the third operation, A and B will become empty at the same time. For the fourth operation, B will become empty first. So the total probability of A becoming empty first plus half the probability that A and B become empty at the same time, is 0.25 * (1 + 1 + 0.5 + 0) = 0.625.
