Post subject: | Still stumped |
I have come back to this one several times over the past few months, and tried a number of ways to get the answer. I have a spreadsheet where I have each variation (and its rotations) that I hand created from a list of all possibilities. So I know I haven't missed any combos. However, my answer is still not accepted... totally stumped. |

what do you mean by "it's rotations"? Maybe you can scann in the spreadshead and mail it to me and I'll have a look and tell you what you're doing wrong. Greez |

OK... I'll explain what I did with a cut down example (since I need to hunt across 3 computers to find the spreadsheet). Say it is 3 "pearls" with 3 colours. First I listed ALL combinations:
Then grouped them into "rotations" - so listed unique combinations on the left, and each combination that was only a rotation of it to the right.
So for that example, it would be 10 combos. Is that correct? |
