Question how many possibilities are existent for a futoshiki of nxn version where no condition via inequalities is existent
Answer : this is the product of all n! from 1 to n
Proof via induction
for n = 1 this is 1 ! it's clear
Now look at the table for an example 1 to 2
* | 2 | * | 1 | * |
* | 1 | * | 2 | * |
Everywhere where the * ist placed the 3 can be inserted
for once in a row and in a column.
So these are 3 *2 , possiblities , so this is exactly the factor 3!. Which we desired. The proof is now clear and left to the reader.
Note for 2 there are just 2 possiblilities
1 | 2 |
2 | 1 |
2 | 1 |
1 | 2 |
So the proof should now be clear and follows from peano and induction.
Other thoughts , like the amount of possible sudoku combinations , follow the pattern of a placeholder like this , if they are implemented in a clever way, and are as trivial and easy.
