2018 AIME I Problem 14
Let SP_1P_2P_3EP_4P_5 be a heptagon. A frog starts jumping at vertex S. From any vertex of the heptagon except E, the frog may jump to either of the two adjacent vertices. When it reaches vertex E, the frog stops and stays there. Find the number of distinct sequences of jumps of no more than 12 jumps that end at E.
Leading zeroes must be inputted, so if your answer is 34, then input 034
