From a permutations perspective, let the event A be the probability of finding a group of 23 people without any repeated birthdays. Where the event B is the probability of finding a group of 23 people with at least two people sharing same birthday, P(B) = 1 − P(A).
(3.a) We may choose one of the f(k − 1, j − 1) permutations with k − 1 elements and j − 1 fixed points and add element k as a new fixed point. (3.b) We may choose one of the f(k − 1, j) permutations with k − 1 elements and j fixed points and insert element k in an existing cycle of length > 1 in front of one of the (k − 1) − j ...
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 ...
A naive application of the even-odd rule gives (,) = = () ()where P(m,n) is the probability of m people having all of n possible birthdays. At least for P(4,7) this formula gives the same answer as above, 525/1024 = 8400/16384, so I'm fairly confident it's right.
A k-permutation of a multiset M is a sequence of k elements of M in which each element appears a number of times less than or equal to its multiplicity in M ...
Tomiko Itooka, a 116-year-old Japanese woman who became the oldest living person in August 2024, died on Dec. 29, 2024, according to Guinness World Records.
A main problem in permutation codes is to determine the value of (,), where (,) is defined to be the maximum number of codewords in a permutation code of length and minimum distance . There has been little progress made for 4 ≤ d ≤ n − 1 {\displaystyle 4\leq d\leq n-1} , except for small lengths.
