11 ! There are exactly ten ways of selecting three from five, 12345:
13 ! 123, 124, 125, 134, 135, 145, 234, 235, 245, and 345
15 ! In combinatorics, we use the notation, 5C3 = 10.
18 ! nCr = n! / r! * (n - r)!
19 ! where r ≤ n, n! = n * (n − 1) * ... * 3 * 2 * 1, and 0! = 1.
21 ! It is not until n = 23, that a value exceeds one-million: 23C10 = 1144066.
23 ! How many values of nCr, for 1 ≤ n ≤ 100, are greater than one-million?
