Re: [Fast] Formula

You can break the problem into five parts, for which can be totaled up for the answer.
1.) How many 10-bit binary strings have 4 ones?
2.) How many 10-bit binary strings have 3 ones?
3.) How many 10-bit binary strings have 2 ones? 
4.) How many 10-bit binary strings have 1 one? Answer = ten
5.) How many 10-bit binary strings only zeros? Answer = one
So this is a start...  Sorry I don't know the rest off the bat.
