Counting Rules
Product Rule: If there are n1 choices for the first item and n2 choices for the second item, then there are n1n2 choices for the two items
Sum Rule: If there are n1 choices of an element from S1 and n2 choices of an element from S2 and S1 S2 is empty, then there are n1 + n2 choices of an element from S1 S2

Counting Examples
License numbers have the form LLL DDD.How many different license numbers are available?
There are 38 students in a class, and 38 chairs.How many different seating arrangements are thereif everyone shows up?
How many different predicates are there on = {a,…,z}?

Important Cases of theProduct Rule
• Cartesian product– |A1 A2 … An| = |A1||A2||An|
• Subsets of a set S– |P(S)|= 2|S|
• Strings of length n over – |n| = ||n

More ComplicatedCounting Examples
• BASIC variable names– Variables can be one or two characters long
• The first character must be a letter• The second character can be a letter or a digit• The keywords “TO”, “IF”, and “DO” are excluded

Clever PHP Applications
• Every sequence of n2 + 1 distinct numbers contains a subsequence of length n+1 that is either strictly increasing or strictly decreasing.

![Page 15: Counting. Counting = Determining the number of elements of a finite set.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649c575503460f948fe7e7/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Proof• Let a1, . . . am be a sequence of n2+1 distinct numbers
• Let ik be the length of the longest increasing sequence starting at ak
• Let dk be the length of the longest decreasing sequence starting at ak
• Suppose ik n and dk n for all k
• There are n2 possible values of (ik, dk)
• So there must be k and j, k < j, with ik = ij and dk = dj
• This is a contradiction:– If ak < al al then ik > ij (start at ak and continue with the longest
increasing sequence starting at al)
– If ak < al al then ik > ij (start at ak and continue with the longest increasing sequence starting at al)
