Re: 11864 - Probability Calculation
OK, I've figured out how for a given M to split the sum into two parts. The first part can be cached independent of M (for given p), the other part is dependent on M, and has to be recalculated for every M (again, for given fixed p). I get TLE. Is this the approach you took? Do you answer each query in O(M) time?
