Hello, I don't know if this is the appropriate place to submit code, but...
The combinat.py file lists Rencontres numbers in the TODO section. Here's a function that implements Rencontres numbers. I tried to copy the documentation style, but feel free to edit as necessary. def rencontres(n, k): r""" Returns the Rencontres number D(n,k), the number of permutations of {1, 2,..., n} with k fixed points. EXAMPLES: Because 312 and 231 are the two permutations of {1, 2, 3} with 0 fixed points, we have: sage: rencontres(3,0) 2 Also: sage: rencontres(6,1) 264 REFERENCES: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rencontres_number Sequence A008290 in the OEIS. """ if (n - k) % 2 == 0: return binomial(n, k) * ceil(factorial(n - k)/e) else: return binomial(n, k) * floor(factorial(n - k)/e) -- --- Dan Drake <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- KAIST Department of Mathematical Sciences ------- http://math.kaist.ac.kr/~drake
