CO30 Integer Partitions

Описание: #combinatorics In how many ways can you put 10 identical balls in 4 piles? Each possibility is a partition of the integer 10 into 4 non-empty parts and the total number is denoted by p_k(n). We will give definitions, examples, and two recurrence relations (with proof) for p_k(n). Subscribe ‪@Shahriari‬ for math videos at the college level.
