Call an 2n2 n-digit base-10 number special if we can split its digits into two sets of size nn such that the sum of the numbers in the two sets is the same. Let pnp_{n} be the probability that a randomly-chosen 2n2 n-digit number is special. (We allow leading zeros in 2n2 n-digit numbers). (a) [20] The sequence pnp_{n} converges to a constant cc. Find cc.
