ANANUPURVI
163. (Question ) What is this Ananupurvi ?
(Answer) Place three numbers starting from one and progressively adding one. Multiply all the six numbers of this arithmetic progression and subtract 2 (depicting the ascending and descending sequence) from the result. This final result is called ananupurvi (random sequence). (This number is the total number of sequences that can be made in random order. In other words this is the sum total of all permutations and combinations of the random sequences that can be made with the given set of numbers).
