Your code so far

import random

class Hat:
    def __init__(self, **balls):
        self.contents = []
        for color, count in balls.items():
            self.contents.extend([color] * count)

    def draw(self, num_balls):
        if num_balls >= len(self.contents):
            return self.contents[:]
        drawn_balls = random.sample(self.contents, num_balls)
        for ball in drawn_balls:
            self.contents.remove(ball)
        return drawn_balls

def experiment(hat, expected_balls, num_balls_drawn, num_experiments):
    success_count = 0

    for _ in range(num_experiments):
        hat_copy = Hat(**expected_balls)
        drawn_balls = hat_copy.draw(num_balls_drawn)
        
        success = True
        for color, count in expected_balls.items():
            if drawn_balls.count(color) < count:
                success = False
                break
        
        if success:
            success_count += 1
    
    return success_count / num_experiments

# Example usage
hat = Hat(blue=5, red=4, green=2)
expected_balls = {"red": 1, "green": 2}
num_balls_drawn = 4
num_experiments = 10000

probability = experiment(hat, expected_balls, num_balls_drawn, num_experiments)
print("Probability:", probability)
