=PERMUT()
Returns the number of permutations for a given number of objects that can be selected from number objects. A permutation is any set or subset of objects or events where internal order is significant. Permutations are different from combinations, for which the internal order is not significant. Use this function for lottery-style probability calculations.

⚠ Common Errors
#VALUE!
If number or number_chosen is nonnumeric, PERMUT returns the #VALUE! error value.
Fix: برای هر دو آرگومان مقدار عددی صحیح وارد کنید و بررسی کنید سلولهای مرجع عدد باشند، نه متن.
#NUM!
If number ≤ 0 or if number_chosen < 0, PERMUT returns the #NUM! error value. If number < number_chosen, PERMUT returns the #NUM! error value.
Fix: Correct the input value
