1
Q
What are permutations?
A
All the different combinations possible in any order.
The number of permutations of n objects taken r at a time is determined by the following formula:
P(n,r) = n! / (n−r)!
2
Q
What are combinations?
A
All the different combinations possible while preserving order.
C(n,r) = n! / (n-r)!r!
3
Q
Formula for Euclidean distance
A
e., √(x1 - x2)2 + (y1 - y2)2
4
Q
Formula for the sum of a series
A
Sn = n/2[2a + (n − 1)d]
n = the number of terms to be added a = the first term in the sequence d = the constant value between terms
