Python says:  (1 Combination 2) = 0

         Ok... It's Impossible (to do).

              ------- is there a Better explanation?



(5 Combination 0) = 1  <---- This is explained by  Comb(5,0)=Comb(5,5)

                                      in general:   Comb(N,r)=Comb(N,N-r)

_______________________________________

from math import comb

for i in range(6):      print( comb(5,i) )

print( comb(1,2)  )
