I would like some help in finding out what the possible combinations there are in the NFL card this past Sunday.
More generally, the formula for finding the number of combinations of k objects you can choose from a set of n objects is:
n!
n_C_k = ----------
k!(n - k)!
For our CAT example, we do the following:
3! 3 x 2 x 1 6
3_C_2 = ------ = ----------- = --- = 3
2!(1!) 2 x 1 (1) 2
U see i have this formula but i can not use stipulations such as not having conflicts. ex:
Stipulation #1 is cannot use opponent in same combo.
so what r the combos of all 26 teams that played on sunday but cannot use the same two teams in the same combo and cannot have any repeats. so that NE and Mia can not end up in same combo.
and lets make it a combo of 4, thanks for help.
