TopCoder problem "RandomAppleEasy" used in Member SRM 478 (Division II Level Three)



Problem Statement

    Taro likes apples very much. He has N boxes numbered from 0 to N-1. Box i contains red[i] red apples and green[i] green apples. He decided to choose one apple from his boxes, and he does so in the following way:

  • First Step: He chooses a non-empty subset of his N boxes randomly and transfers all apples from those boxes to another box (this is a box other than the original N boxes and it is initially empty). Each non-empty subset of boxes has the same probability of being chosen.

  • Second Step: He chooses one apple from the new box randomly. Each apple in the box has the same probability of being chosen.


Return the probability that Taro chooses a red apple.

Examples

0)
    
{5}
{8}
Returns: 0.38461538461538464
There is only one box which contains 5 red apples and 8 green apples. The probability of choosing a red apple is 5 / 13.
1)
    
{1, 2}
{1, 1}
Returns: 0.5888888888888888
If he chooses only box 0 in the first step, the probability of choosing a red apple is 1 / 2.

If he chooses only box 1 in the first step, the probability of choosing a red apple is 2 / 3.

If he chooses both boxes in the first step, the probability of choosing a red apple is 3 / 5.



So the probability of choosing a red apple is (1 / 2 + 2 / 3 + 3 / 5) / 3 = 53 / 90.
2)
