Re: Combination Permutation

Hi Agnishom;

I would use mathematica to print the files in theory. In reality, I would never do such a thing. Why? Because there is almost always a better way than looking at all the permutations.


In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
Probability is the most important concept in modern science, especially as nobody has the slightest notion what it means.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.

Re: Combination Permutation

I understand that but what is Mathematica?

Hi Agnishom;

Mathematica is a program that does mathematics. You will be exposed to it when you get to college and certainly when you find a job.

Re: Combination Permutation

Hmmm...
I asked my father and he said that it is used to solve problems like differential equations.
