COMBIN(n,r)
- is the number of items.
- is the number of items in each arrangement.
Description
- This function gives the combination of objects.
- i.e. An arrangement of objects without any repetition, selected from different objects is called a combination of Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle n} objects taken Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle r} at a time.
- Also if the order is not a matter, it is a Combination.
- If order is a matter it is a Permutation.
- A combination is denoted by nCr or Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \binom{n}{r}} .

- When we are giving the Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle n} & values in decimals, it will automatically convert into Integers.
- For e.g.
- COMBIN(5.4,2)=10 is equivalent to COMBIN(5,2)
- COMBIN(5,-2)=NAN, because Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle r} is negative.
