Bob is an amoeba that behaves as follows: at the end of any given minute, Bob either splits into two identical and independent copies of himself, stays the same without splitting, or dies; all three of these happen with equal probability. All subsequent Bobs behave identically and independently to the original Bob. If there is only 1 Bob at the start, find the expected number of Bobs after 2 minutes

However, if we connect a defective chip to another chip, it may output any arbitrary answer (defective---->might say the other one is working /defective). In the class, we saw that if strictly more than half the chips are working, then...
