Combinaison de p éléments parmi n (here : p=4, n=6)
This symbol represents the number of possible choices of p elements within a set of n elements.
For instance, (combinaison de 1 élément parmi 3) = 3, (Combinaison de 3 éléments parmi 3) = 1.
PS: If p>n, then the value is 0. (Combinaison de 4 éléments parmi 3 (impossible)) = 0.
Thus, "choose" is explained by the "choice" of p number from n elements.
