Thanks for sharing, currently I am stuck in test case #9, I am not sure why.
and I just saw someone was able to use numpy!!! I swear I was not able to use it in the beginning but It was able when I tried....

really thanks to KaustubhRakhade . I noticed test case 9 is about the special case where the source is terminal!

Yeah, even I was not able to use it. But it turns out you can. Good luck with the submission.

Currently I am only failing test 3, I was decided to not search on foruns directly related to the foobar chalange, but with only one day to go I'm beginnig to get desperate LOL
Anyone has any insight regarding test 3?

Nevermind I got it, it was something on the way I was getting R and Q Matrices

Hi there!
I share my solution, I didnt used matrix stuff like inverse or traspose because I don't understand how to apply this concept to this excercise at all, but think it is useful for someone that is making it in the same way than me:

def solution(m):
    
    #case when 0 is terminal state
    if(not any(m[0])):
        return [1] + ([0] * (len(m)-1)) + [1]
   
    #diagonal values arent relevant 
    cleanDiagonal(m)
    
    #useful structures
    probabilitiesMatrix = generateProbabilityMatrix(m)
    terminals, notTerminals = getTerminalsAndNotTerminals(m)
    
    #we will remove one by one all of the not-terminals nodes 
    for i in notTerminals:
        absorbNode(probabilitiesMatrix, i)
    
    #now we can take the solution
    terminalsProbabilities = list(map(lambda x: probabilitiesMatrix[0][x], terminals))
    commonDenominator = getCommonDenominator(list(map(lambda x: x[1], terminalsProbabilities)))
    unsimplifiedNumerators = list(map(lambda x: fracUnsimplify(x, commonDenominator)[0], terminalsProbabilities))
    
    return unsimplifiedNumerators + [commonDenominator]
    
   
def cleanDiagonal(m):
    for i in range(len(m)):
        m[i][i] = 0


def generateProbabilityMatrix(m):
    result = []

天才,我大概看懂了题解,实在是不知道怎么用保持分数的形式进行运算,比如说求逆
