## Project Euler 53–Combinatoric selections

By Wu Yudong on August 20, 2018

Combinatoric selections

There are exactly ten ways of selecting three from five, 12345:

123, 124, 125, 134, 135, 145, 234, 235, 245, and 345
In combinatorics, we use the notation, $$C_{5}^{3}=10$$.

In general,

$$C_{n}^{r}=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$$, where r ≤ n, n! = n×(n−1)×…×3×2×1, and 0! = 1.

It is not until n = 23, that a value exceeds one-million: $$C_{23}^{10}= 1144066$$ .

How many, not necessarily distinct, values of $$C_{n}^{r}$$, for 1 ≤ n ≤ 100, are greater than one-million?

123、124、125、134、135、145、234、235、245和345

，其中r ≤ n，n! = n×(n−1)×…×3×2×1，且0! = 1。
