You are painting a fence of n posts with k different colors. You must paint the posts following these rules:
Given the two integers n and k, return the number of ways you can paint the fence.
Example 1:
Input: n = 3, k = 2
Output: 6Explanation: All the possibilities are shown.
Note that painting all the posts red or all the posts green is invalid because there cannot be three posts in a row with the same color.
Example 2:
Input: n = 1, k = 1
Output: 1Example 3:
Input: n = 7, k = 2
Output: 42Constraints:
1 <= n <= 501 <= k <= 10⁵[0, 2³¹ - 1] for the given n and k.
