Returns

p : float

The proportion of paths that do not stay inside the two lines.

: The classical algorithm counts the integer lattice paths from (0, 0)

: to (m, n) which satisfy |x/m - y/n| < h / lcm(m, n).

: The paths make steps of size +1 in either positive x or positive y

: directions.

: We are, however, interested in 1 - proportion to computes p-values,

: so we change the recursion to compute 1 - p directly while staying

: within the "inside method" a described by Hodges.

: We generally follow Hodges' treatment of Drion/Gnedenko/Korolyuk.
