排列：In mathematics, the notion of permutation relates to the act of arranging all the members of a set into some sequence or order, or if the set is already ordered, rearranging (reordering) its elements, a process called permuting.
组合：In mathematics, a combination is a selection of items from a collection, such that (unlike permutations) the order of selection does not matter.
