Hi, The question is for our lotto syndicate:
The numbers range 1 to 49 with a drawn set of 6 numbers: In any set of of six numbers there a 246,820 combinations that contain 3 of the six numbers drawn 13,545 combinations that contain 4 of the six numbers drawn 252 combinations that contain 5 of the six numbers drawn How can I generate the the 252 - 5 of 6 number combinations from the 6 numbers? and the 3 and 4 out of six. In effect there will be 252 sets of 6 numbers generated which 5 of the drawn numbers. (In seperate cells please) I had a look at Myrna Larsons code combinations/permutations (now thats clever!) and trawled through lots of past posts by such as Tom Ogilvy and Myrna Larson but cannot find what I want to see: Thanks very much for any help/pointers Ste |
