I have another question here.
Flip a fair coin, If it lands heads, write an H and the turn is done. If it lands tails, then flip it again-write H if it lands heads or T if it lands tails, and the turn is done. After 6 tunrs, what is the probability that 6 H's have been written? Express your answer as a common fraction.
