FUNCTION COMBIN (COMBINATION)
COMBIN
This function returns the number of combination for a given number of items. Use "COMBIN" to determine the total possible number of groups for a given number of items.
How does it work?
=COMBIN(number,number_chosen)
Where:
NUMBER is the number of items.
NUMBER_CHOSEN is the number of items in each combination.
Remarks
- Numeric arguments are truncated to integers.
- If either argument is nonnumeric, COMBIN returns the #VALUE! error value.
- If number < 0, number_chosen < 0, or number < number_chosen, COMBIN returns the #NUM! error value.
- A combination is any set or subset of items, regardless of their internal order. - Combinations are distinct from permutations, for which the internal order is significant.
