The infinite number of darts are not very friendly. I suppose dynamic programming is not applicable for larger input. My DP approach got TLE #7, #8 and MemoryError from #9 onwards. If you're interested, here is part of my code snippet:
EDIT: Learn about linear recurrence relation matrix (of size ), and then think about constructing the matrix (of size ) that can be feeded to a cumulative vector. Start with the vector [1] + [0] * 60. Perform matrix exponentiation (divide and conquer, very straightforward) that is . And finally, pick the double ending elements from the final vector of . Problem 114 has a relevant approach.
