i am afraid ther is not there is only one probibility that will give 111111111 there are a huge number of combinations that contain all 9 digits 123456789 & 987654321 to name but 2 there are vastly more combinations that contain all 9 digits (9!) even though the chances of any one sequence is still the same as 111111111 -- When in a hole, stop diging -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
