Consider a non-negative counting semaphore $$S.$$ The operation $$P(S)$$ decrements $$S,$$ and $$V(S)$$ increments $$S.$$ During an execution, $$20$$ $$P(S)$$ operations and $$12$$ $$V(S)$$ operations are issued in some order. The largest initial value of $$S$$ for which at least one $$P(S)$$ operation will remain blocked is _____________ .
