(Gambler’s Ruin) Consider a coin-flipping game with two players where player one wins each toss with probability p, and player two wins with probability q = 1−p. Suppose player one has n1 pennies and player two n2 pennies. Assuming an unfair coin (ie, p = 1/2), the probabilities P1 and P2 that players one and two, respectively, will end penniless are P1 = 1−( p q)n2 1−(p q)n1+n2 and P2 = 1−( q p)n1 1−(q p)n1+n2 . Write a program gambler. py that takes two integers n1 and n2 and a float p as command-line arguments and writes the probabilities P1 and P2, separated by a space.
