"subtract if possible, otherwise add" : a (0) = 0; for n > 0, a ( n ) = a ( n − 1) − n if that number is positive and not already in the sequence, otherwise a ( n ) = a ( n − 1) + n , whether or not that number is already in the sequence.
Combinations and permutations in the mathematical sense are described in several articles. Described together, in-depth: Twelvefold way; Explained separately in a more accessible way: Combination; Permutation; For meanings outside of mathematics, please see both words’ disambiguation pages: Combination (disambiguation) Permutation ...
Suppose one wants to determine the 5-combination at position 72. The successive values of () for n = 4, 5, 6, ... are 0, 1, 6, 21, 56, 126, 252, ..., of which the largest one not exceeding 72 is 56, for n = 8. Therefore c 5 = 8, and the remaining elements form the 4-combination at position 72 − 56 = 16.

A list of articles about numbers (not about numerals). Topics include powers of ten, notable integers, prime and cardinal numbers, and the myriad system.
In combinatorics, the twelvefold way is a systematic classification of 12 related enumerative problems concerning two finite sets, which include the classical problems of counting permutations, combinations, multisets, and partitions either of a set or of a number.
No. 32 appeared most often — 173 times — among the first five balls drawn in winning combinations, followed by the No. 39 in 163 combinations, according to data.
The number of such strings is the number of ways to place 10 stars in 13 positions, () = =, which is the number of 10-multisubsets of a set with 4 elements. Bijection between 3-subsets of a 7-set (left) and 3-multisets with elements from a 5-set (right).
