Question

Consider the following sets of characters.

• D = Digits = {0, 1, 2, . . . , 9}

• L = Letters = {a, b, c, . . . , z} (there are 26 letters)

• S = Special characters = {∗, &, $, #}

Consider the set of strings of length 6 over the alphabet Σ = D ∪ L ∪ S without repeated characters and whose first character cannot be a special character. How many such strings are there? Hint: Use r–permutations.
