I just tried it out using the same search string that I'd, just prior, run on the goog:
how many permutations of 9 digit number
Results were not encouraging.
thanks for flagging this, will get it raised
And what is it supposed to tell? I mean, I'd rather ask an llm or some other ai thingy this kind of stuff, and use a search engine for things like looking up docs on calculating the number of said permutations. Besides, there's no single correct answer to this question, may be 9!, may be 1, may be tons of stuff between them.
There is a correct answer to the question. It's a math problem.
The task is rather unspecific about what kind of permutations are of interest as well as if there are any restrictions on the number. Like, are 999999999 and 999999999 the same or different?
