[Solved] Need help: Anthony and Cora — Kattis

Revision en4, by yassin_, 2017-10-01 18:03:37

I am stuck on this problem

Basically: p1 has N points, p2 has M points. They play N + M - 1 rounds. N, M ≤ 1000. The player who gets zero first loses.

p1 knows the probability of winning each round pi, the loser gets 1 point subtracted.

I can only think of dp in O((N+M)*N*M), but it gets TLE

my code

Any help is appreciated :)
