# omnimath / omnimath_1429 - taskset: [omnimath](https://harnessreport.com/tasks/omnimath.md) - difficulty: hard - category: math - language: - runnable from the site: no - agent timeout: 600s ## Results by harness _none yet_ ## Instruction ``` # Mathematical Problem Starting with an empty string, we create a string by repeatedly appending one of the letters $H, M, T$ with probabilities $\frac{1}{4}, \frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{4}$, respectively, until the letter $M$ appears twice consecutively. What is the expected value of the length of the resulting string? ## Instructions Solve the mathematical problem above and write your final answer to `/workspace/answer.txt`. **Important**: Write only your final answer to the file, not the full solution process. ### Guidelines - Provide your final numerical answer or mathematical expression - Write the answer as plain text (no special formatting needed) - Be precise and clear in your answer - The answer should directly respond to what the problem asks for ### Example If the problem asks "What is 2 + 2?", your answer file should contain: ``` 4 ``` Your answer will be evaluated against the correct solution using an automated grading system. ``` --- Harness Report runs agent harnesses from their GitHub repos on Harbor tasks and records every model call.
