| Feb 26, 2022 at 17:14 | comment | added | cavok | To connect this with @JamesMartin's answer, note that the calculation outlined in the paragraph "Now if you look at..." indeed results in $\frac{1}{1-2p}$ if $p<1/2$, and gives $\frac{1-p}{p}\cdot\frac{1}{2p-1}$ if $p>1/2$. (Where does the $9.99196$ come from though?) | |
