Re: stair problem

Hi juantheron;


In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.

Re: stair problem

Hi juantheron;

Yes, I call it that to remind me. The question is phrased,"How many permutations can you make out of the word MISSISSIPPI using all the letters?"
