Jun 20 at 14:30	comment	added	Mtkel N		Yeah for p=1/2 it indeed not difficult but what about other values?
Jun 20 at 14:13	comment	added	Brendan McKay		In the case that $p=\frac12$, $X-Y$ has a shifted binomial distribution so you get an exact answer.
Jun 20 at 13:43	comment	added	Mtkel N		It can be either, a solution to any of those is good
Jun 20 at 13:37	comment	added	Alf		Is $p$ a constant, or can it shrink with $n$?
