This is the problem of cses coin piles I have only one doubt why we have to check for this condition min(a, b) * 2 >= max(a, b)? and other approaches and hints will be highly appreciated.

No we dont need that condition
thank you but i am not able to understand your code
At which part ? :(
You can construct the equation system and find out. The solution must be nonnegative integers.
Let x be the number of moves that remove one coin from the left pile and two coins from the right pile. Let y be the number of moves that remove two coins from the left pile and one coin from the right pile. This yields a system of equations that you can solve: a = x + 2y, b = 2x + y. Through solving the system, you can rederive the condition you mentioned.
I think this would be more simple to understand
