Permutations without repetition n=7 result

The calculator computes the number of permutations of n elements. The number of permutations is the number of ways to choose a sample of n elements from a set of n distinct objects where order does matter and repetitions are not allowed. There are n! (n factorial) ways of arranging n objects into an ordered sequence.

Elements to choose from:

(n)

A bit of theory - the foundation of combinatorics

Permutations

A permutation is an ordered arrangement of all n elements of a set, where each element is used exactly once, the order matters, and no repetition is allowed.

$P(n)=n(n-1)(n-2)...1=n!$

Example: We have 4 books. In how many ways can we arrange them side by side on a shelf?

Foundation of combinatorics in word problems
