Combinatorics

[small willow]

In a chess tournament, 12 players participate. If a player gets 1 point for a win, 1/2 point for a draw, and 0 points for a loss, find the total possible final score vectors

score...vectors?

[small willow]

Idk
I'm also confused what vector means here 😞

[neon eagle]

lets just erase it

seems irrelevant

[small willow]

Yea

[neon eagle]

anyways

im assuming each player faces each other?

there has to be some constraints, otherwise it would just be 12

[mighty fern]

Show us the original text.

[small willow]

This is original

[small willow]

That's all the info given

[neon eagle]

what.

[mighty fern]

No it's not, it's your attempt to copy the problem.

[neon eagle]

ok, this makes no sense

actually send a picture

[mighty fern]

Yes.

[small willow]

🤷

Our teacher gave us this problem what pic can I send

[neon eagle]

dude, there is no way that is all the info given

[neon eagle]

.

[mighty fern]

...a picture of the paper the problem is written on.

[small willow]

He spoke the problem and I wrote it simple

That's all I have

[neon eagle]

uh

ask teacher

is all i can say

[mighty fern]

Then you probably wrote it down wrong because you didn't understand it, so now it's impossible for us to answer the question he actually asked.

[small willow]

Hmm that might be the case

[neon eagle]

usually problems like these contain constraints or some sort of system, such as certain players playing against each other, or a formatting

like a round robin, and such

so w/o those we can't really draw conclusions

[small willow]

I will ask if the question is correct then connect again

[mighty fern]

If possible, have your teacher send you the question directly in text form and show us that.

[small willow]

Okk

[neon eagle]
