Hi;
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.

Re: Combinations and Permutations
Nope. The ones you can solve and the ones you can not.
Richard says that if you solve them they are trivial.

Re: Combinations and Permutations
Which Richard are we talking about here?
There are combinatorial problems that GFs cannot solve?

Richard Feynman of course.

I once asked that same question.

Re: Combinations and Permutations
Do you actually have a problem you can claim GFs cannot solve?

Hmmmm. To answer that would be a little bit difficult. I have a strong opinion.

Re: Combinations and Permutations
Have you bumped until now into a combinatorial problem no GF could solve?

Re: Combinations and Permutations
He was really most famous in math for adding the final touches to Godel's work. Along with Alonzo Church they put an end to Hilbert's ideas. From the paper he wrote came a astonishing fact...
