Hello everyone. Could someone help with this?
there is a set of 6 switches, each with 2 options: up or down. They are in order and cannot be rearranged. How many possible configurations does this set have?
Kirby picture because I suck at math.
2^6 = 64, this is just the binary representation of numerals
> They are in order and cannot be rearranged
not quite following you, why is this important?

Not OP but I assume because if they're all off, and they're all in position 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6
It could be considered a different consideration if they're all off, but now it's 2, 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6.
Their physical position could be a different "configuration"
