An 'Odd' Arrangement
In how many ways can you put 15 balls in 4 boxes such that each box contains an odd number of balls?
Details and Assumptions :

- For example, the image shows 3 boxes which contain 5 balls each, and 1 box which contains all 15 balls (and all 3 boxes).
Bonus : Generalize the given situation for balls and boxes.
The answer is 304.
