how do I calculate probabilities using data files and sets of data numeric and text?

[Jonathan Camilleri]

This may sound like an odd question but let's say I have the question "how many items fit within a matrix/cell/set, then I assume nchoosek is not the right command to use right?

 Function File: C = nchoosek (N, K)

 Function File: C = nchoosek (SET, K)

Would you rather use sets?
