Your first task will be to instruct the computer about how to take a single risk repeatedly by "decoloring a ball triangle." Your decoloring options – white, black, and numbered balls – instruct the computer as follows:

  • If a numbered ball (like ) is reached, the computer stops risk-taking with the probability displayed on the ball (explained below).
  • If a white ball (like ) is reached, the computer continues risk-taking. Thus, a white ball is like a numbered ball at which the computer stops risk-taking with 0% probability.
  • If a black ball (like ) is reached, the computer stops risk-taking. Thus, a black ball is like a numbered ball at which the computer stops risk-taking with 100% probability.

Your bonus for the decoloring task equals the accumulated earnings at the ball at which risk-taking (following your instructions) stops, plus an endowment. The endowment ensures that your bonus is always positive (but your accumulated earnings can be negative). {{ if costly }} Moreover, using a numbered ball costs you {{costPerBall}}. {{ endif }}

Please resolve the single risks below.
