python|superposition problem in while loop(superposition problem2)

Original problem: ccc20j2

People who study epidemiology use models to analyze the spread of disease. In this problem, we use a simple model. When a person has a disease, they infect exactly RR other people but only on the very next day. No person is infected more than once. We want to determine when a total of more than PP people have had the disease.

This one is basically the same with ccc17j2|python|superposition problem in for loop

Comparision 20 and 17

	17	20
constant number	n	n
repeat num(exponent)	k	?
main num	10	r
formula	n+n*10+n*10*10...	n+n*r+n*r*r...
difference	we got all we want just calculate	we need repeat num but we have extra condition, to compare with P
loop	for loop: cz we have repeat number, that means we have the range. for loop is the one asking for range	while loop: cz we don't have repeat num but we have condition, while loop is the one asking for condition
