20 There are $20$ ways to give $3$ red balls and $3$ blue balls. It turns out that all of them are possible. Here is an example of the operation (`r` stands for red, `b` stands for blue): * You choose $s = 3, t = 4$. * Initially, the row looks like `rrrbbb`. * You remove $3$rd ball (`r`) and give it to Snuke. Now the row looks like `rrbbb`. * You remove $4$th ball (`b`) and give it to Snuke. Now the row looks like `rrbb`. * You remove $1$st ball (`r`) and give it to Snuke. Now the row looks like `rbb`. * You remove $3$rd ball (`b`) and give it to Snuke. Now the row looks like `rb`. * You remove $1$st ball (`r`) and give it to Snuke. Now the row looks like `b`. * You remove $1$st ball (`b`) and give it to Snuke. Now the row is empty. This way, Snuke receives balls in the order `rbrbrb`.
