Description

This lecture covers the basic counting principles, including the Sum Rule which states that the total number of ways to do two tasks A and B is the sum of the ways to do each task individually. It also explains the Sum Rule in terms of sets, the Subtraction Rule, and provides examples of applying these rules to counting problems such as variable names in programming and passwords on a computer system.
