What’s the expected number of HH in 10 consecutive coin tosses ? — Quantitative Problems on Probability

First we will solve it using Recursion. Let’s say E[n] = Expected number of HH in n consecutive tosses. Say X[i] = Output ( H/T ) on the ith toss. If first toss returns T, then expected number of HH in 10 tosses is same as expected number of HH inthe next 9 tosses. E[10 | X[1...
