Let's say Python offers 138 different colors via a short hand code (e.g. "white smoke", "light gray"). Suppose you are writing an algorithm that automates a colorful background graphic with 25 cells. How many ways are there to choose 25 colors from these 138 color options if... a ... there are no restrictions? b... all the colors are different? c... 12 of the cells are of one color and 13 are a different color (for example, 12 are "red" and 13 are "blue")? d... at least 5 cells are "red" and at least 5 cells are "blue"? e Bonus: Check out the Python code that builds the 5 by 5 graphic. Which case is programmed (a - d)?

Let's say Python offers 138 different colors via a short hand code (e.g. "white smoke", "light gray"). Suppose
you are writing an algorithm that automates a colorful background graphic with 25 cells. How many ways
are there to choose 25 colors from these 138 color options if...
a ... there are no restrictions?
b... all the colors are different?
c... 12 of the cells are of one color and 13 are a different color (for example, 12 are "red" and 13 are
"blue")?
d... at least 5 cells are "red" and at least 5 cells are "blue"?
e Bonus: Check out the Python code that builds the 5 by 5 graphic. Which case is programmed (a -
d)?
