in case the coin is not biased, we can flip the coin twice and define the
rules as if {H,H} comes then ignore it i.e. dont take it as a flip and the 3
other events would be valid onces and could occur with equal probabilities.In case of a biased coin please specify the probability of getting heads and that of getting tails.
