Number of combinations
I think this is a dumb question but if I have 25 categories and each category can either have a value of 1 or 0. How many combinations do I get?
Thanks,

I think you mean "permutations," not combinations. You have 25 slots, with two possibilities per slot. That means you will have 2^25 possible permutations.

Thanks that is exactly what I needed

2 to the 25th power
2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x .... x 2 (25 times)
