::: If you go back and look at the original entry, you will see that the original java code worked the same way as the old J example. But that code was deleted for copyright reasons and when it was deleted, the associated examples were also deleted, which makes talking about that issue a bit confusing. But, anyways, we have two tasks here: one based on a common interpretation of the wording of the original task description and another based on the original examples. Without those examples, the original task description does not distinguish between these two cases. --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] 19:15, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
 
::::Hi Rdm. I went to the original blog with the Java code, and I think that it is probably a case of a loosely used term: "Combinations with repetitions" that is not what is mentioned in the wp article. Wolfram mathworld calls what is mentioned in the wp article [http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Multichoose.html multichoose], but it is not what the Java does - as you have been saying. If someone can come up with some good references for what the Java code is doing then I'd be grateful, Ta. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 20:11, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
