Course content

2 sections5 lectures1h 26m total length
  • Introduction to Permutation9:00

    Learn permutation and combination by identifying when order matters, using an ATM pin, seating, and team selection to distinguish permutation from combination and its role in probability and computer science.

  • Introduction to Combination11:42

    Discover how combination selects items where order does not matter, with examples like choosing students, pizza toppings, and selections. Compare permutation, where order matters, and learn cues to distinguish them.

  • Quiz 1

Requirements

  • No prior knowledge is required; this course starts from the basics with simple explanations. Basic understanding of numbers and a willingness to practice logical problem-solving is helpful.

Description

Welcome to Learn Permutations, Combinations & Cryptarithmetic

This course is specially designed for beginners, school and college students, engineering undergraduates, diploma learners, competitive examination aspirants, and anyone interested in developing strong logical reasoning and mathematical problem-solving skills. The course provides a simple and easy-to-understand introduction to permutations, combinations, and cryptarithmetic, which are fundamental topics in mathematics, aptitude, and artificial intelligence.

You will begin by understanding the basic concepts of permutations and combinations, their differences, and how to identify when order matters and when it does not. The course then explains factorials, counting principles, and mathematical formulas through clear derivations, step-by-step examples, and practical problem-solving techniques. Each concept is presented using real-life scenarios, visual illustrations, and solved examples to help learners build confidence from the basics.

In addition, you will learn cryptarithmetic, an exciting category of logical puzzles where letters represent digits. The course explains the rules, constraints, and systematic approaches required to solve these puzzles while strengthening analytical thinking and logical reasoning abilities. You will also discover how cryptarithmetic relates to artificial intelligence through constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) and understand how techniques such as backtracking are used to solve complex real-world problems.

Each topic is presented in a structured and beginner-friendly manner with illustrations, comparisons, solved examples, quizzes, and practical insights to enhance learning. By the end of this course, you will have a solid understanding of counting techniques, logical puzzle solving, and analytical reasoning, enabling you to confidently solve mathematical and aptitude problems. You will also gain the foundational knowledge required to understand AI-based problem-solving techniques used in scheduling, resource allocation, route planning, and other intelligent systems.

Whether you are preparing for aptitude tests, competitive examinations, engineering courses, or academic projects or simply wish to improve your logical thinking skills, this course will provide a strong foundation in permutations, combinations, and cryptarithmetic.
