leetcode 837. New 21 Game

题目：

Alice plays the following game, loosely based on the card game “21”.

Alice starts with 0 points, and draws numbers while she has less than K points. During each draw, she gains an integer number of points randomly from the range [1, W], where W is an integer. Each draw is independent and the outcomes have equal probabilities.

Alice stops drawing numbers when she gets K or more points. What is the probability that she has N or less points?

Example 1:

Input: N = 10, K = 1, W = 10
Output: 1.00000
Explanation:  Alice gets a single card, then stops.

Example 2:

Input: N = 6, K = 1, W = 10
Output: 0.60000
Explanation:  Alice gets a single card, then stops.
In 6 out of W = 10 possibilities, she is at or below N = 6 points.

Example 3:

Input: N = 21, K = 17, W = 10
Output: 0.73278

Note:

1. 0 <= K <= N <= 10000
2. 1 <= W <= 10000
3. Answers will be accepted as correct if they are within 10^-5 of the correct answer.
4. The judging time limit has been reduced for this question.

解法：

这个题大致的意思是在点数不超过K的情况下，每次从[1,W]中任选一个数字,求出当和点数大于等于K时，小于等于N的概率。

这个题我们可以看作是给定N个台阶，每次上升[1,W]个台阶的问题，可以分三种情况，设当前已走步数为 test，当前步数test下的概率 dp[test]

• 当i <= K时，dp[i] = （前W个dp的和）/ W；(爬楼梯得到总楼梯数为i的概率）
• 当K < i < K + W时，那么在这次的前一次的点数范围是[i - W, K - 1]。我们的dp数组表示的是得到点i的概率，所以dp[i]=(dp[K-1]+dp[K-2]+…+dp[i-W])/W.（可以从前一次的基础的上选[1,W]个数字中的一个）
• 当i>=K+W时，这种情况下无论如何不都应该存在的，所以dp[i]=0.

                tSum += dp[i]

                tSum -= dp[i - W]
        return sum(dp[K:])
