We have an unlimited number of dice at our disposal. Let's roll the
die. If the outcome is 1, 2, or 3, we stop; otherwise, if it is 4, 5,
or 6, a corresponding number of dice are rolled. For example, if the
first roll gives 5, then we roll 5 dice, and so on. This procedure
continues for every
after first Roll no of Expected No of Dices will be 2.5
1/2(0)+1/6(4+5+6)
so after second 2.5^2
so after N rounds 2.5^N
