Variations with repetition

The calculator calculates the number of variations with repetition. A variation of the k-th class with repetition of n elements is any ordered k-element group composed of only these n elements such that each element can be repeated any number of times.

Elements to choose from:

(n)

Elements chosen:

Variations with repetition

A variation of the k-th class of n elements is an ordered k-element group formed of a set of n elements, wherein the elements can be repeated and depends on their order. A typical example is the formation of numbers from the numbers 2,3,4,5, and finding their number. We calculate their number according to the combinatorial rule of the product:

$V_k^{\prime }(n)=n\cdot n\cdot n\cdot n...n=n^k$
