hi Orm,
this is from MathWorld:
Permutation: The rearrangement of elements in an ordered list S
into a one-to-one correspondence with S itself, also called an
"arrangement number" or "order." The number of permutations on
a set of elements is given by n! (n factorial).
Combination: The number of ways of picking k _unordered_ outcomes
from n possibilities. Also known as the binomial coefficient or
choice number [...] For example [for n==4, k==2] there are 6
combinations on {1,2,3,4}, namely {1,2}, {1,3}, {1,4}, {2,3},
{2,4}, and {3,4}.
