A fair coin is tossed n times and the outcome of each toss is recorded. Find the probability that in the resulting sequence of tosses a head immediately follows a head exactly h times and a tail immediately follows a tail exactly t times. (For example, for the sequence HHHTTHTHH, we have n = 9, h = 3, and t = 1.)
