Combination lock 2019-07-31
From Antony:
Hello.
So my 3yr old daughter has had a bit of a play with the 3 dial combination lock on my backpack and locked it closed.
I am looking for all the possible combinations to go through a process of elimination to find the combination she has set.
To be clear. There are three dials, each with the numbers 0-9. I have read 10x10x10=1000 options but not sure if that is correct .. feels too small?
Many thanks in advance.
