Multinomial[n1, n2, ...]
gives the multinomial coefficient (n_1+n_2+…)!/(n_1! n_2! …).
  • Integer mathematical function, suitable for both symbolic and numerical manipulation.
  • The multinomial coefficient Multinomial[n1, n2, ...], denoted (N;n_1,n_2,…,n_m), gives the number of ways of partitioning N distinct objects into m sets, each of size n_i (with N=∑_(i=1)^(m)n_i).
