Random Walk

Source: Top Quant Interview

You are initially located at the origin on the xx-axis. You start a random walk with an equal probability of moving left or right, one step at a time. What is the probability that you will reach point aa before reaching point −b-b?

Assume aa and bb are natural numbers. a>1;b>1a >1; b > 1
