numCombinations ============================================== Purpose ---------------- Computes number of combinations of *n* things taken *k* at a time. Format ---------------- .. function:: y = numCombinations(n, k) :param n: :type n: scalar :param k: :type k: scalar :return y: number of combinations of *n* things take *k* at a time. :rtype y: scalar Examples ---------------- :: y = numCombinations(25,5); print y; The code above, returns: :: 53130.0000 Remarks ------- To calculate all of the combinations, use the function :func:`combinate`. .. seealso:: Functions :func:`combinate`, :func:`combinated`
