If zero is the number that's input into the function, you end up with -1 bottles of beer on the wall?

could be a bit more challenging...
For instance, why don't calculate the statistic probabillity how many beer is drunk by male & female party people during one night. With exponential increasing amount of drunken beer in the later hours... ;-)
