How to use Combinations and Permutations Calculator

Combinations C(n,k) count unordered selections; permutations P(n,k) count ordered selections. Both assume distinct items and no repetition.

  1. Enter total items n, selected items k.
  2. Check that the input follows the stated limits and uses consistent units.
  3. Run the calculator, review the result, then copy or download it.

Good to know

  • Whole numbers only: 0 ≤ k ≤ n ≤ 1,000. Output integers are exact and may contain thousands of digits.
  • Decimal inputs have at most 120 characters and magnitude from 1e-100 to 1e15, or zero. Floating-point results are rounded to 12 significant digits; extreme derived results may underflow or be rejected. Exact integer results are identified separately.

Common questions

What calculation does Combinations and Permutations Calculator perform?

Combinations C(n,k) count unordered selections; permutations P(n,k) count ordered selections. Both assume distinct items and no repetition.

Does order matter?

Order matters for permutations. Selecting A then B differs from selecting B then A; combinations count that selection once.
