- 1Permutations (order matters): P(n,r) = n! / (n−r)!
- 2Combinations (order irrelevant): C(n,r) = n! / (r!(n−r)!)
- 3Rule of thumb: if you can swap two items and get a different result, use permutations

P(10,3) = 10×9×8 = 720
Unos
Choose 3 from 10 (order irrelevant)
Rezultat

C(10,3) = 720/6 = 120
