Hi Vince, This is the number of ways of choosing 5 objects from 10 objects. Mathematicians call this number 10 choose 5. You can find an expression for n choose k in Penny's response to an earlier question. Google will calculate 10 choose 5 for you. If you input 10 choose 5 then Google responds with 10 choose 5 = 252. As for listing them I can get you part way. The combinations section of the Amazing Mathematical Object Factory will generate n choose k for n = 10 and k = 5 but it stops at 200 combinations. I don't know of an online facility that will generate all 252 for you. Harley | ||||||||||||
