I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I remembered you mentioning it, Connie, that's what gave me the idea!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Who wants to help me with a math problem?

I need to know how many unique combinations of three numbers I can get on a clock face (using just the hours, not all the minutes).

So very example: 12-1-2, 12-1-3, 12-1-4....1-2-5, 1-2-6 et al.

What's the formula for that and what's my total, por favor!

Dang. That is getting to be a long time.

Does order matter, Hec? Is 1-2-3 the same or different from 2-3-1?

ETA If it does, the formula will be 12!/9! or 12*11*10

If it doesn't. 12!/(3!*9!) or 12*11*10/(3*2)

That is a good question. 1-2-3 is the same as 2-3-1 in this example.

So this one?

If it doesn't. 12!/(3!*9!) or 12*11*10/(3*2)
