Frequently Asked Questions
When should I use permutations (nPr) instead of combinations (nCr)?
Use permutations when the sequence of items matters, such as locker lock codes, finishing positions in a marathon, or roster batting order. Use combinations when only the group composition matters regardless of selection order, such as choosing team committee members or drawing lottery balls.
Why is the set size capped at n = 20?
Standard JavaScript numbers operate using 64-bit IEEE 754 floating-point arithmetic. Factorials above 20! exceed safe integer precision (9,007,199,254,740,991), so capping n at 20 prevents rounding errors.
Where do these calculations take place?
All factorial calculations execute directly in your web browser through client-side JavaScript. No numbers or inputs are sent across any network connection.
