I wrote an example about the task! [[User:Pelci|Pelci]] 19:44, 18 November 2010 (UTC)
 
:The written example in the task description seems to describe sampling with replacement rather than sampling with repetitions. Which does the task attempt to describe? Given the set n= ('a,a,b,c,d'), k=3; (a,a,a) would be a valid answer if sampling with replacement, however would not be valid if sampling with repetition - which from the wikipedia page I understand to mean that some items may occur more than once in the population to be sampled.--[[User:Tikkanz|Tikkanz]] 21:52, 18 November 2010 (UTC)
