Question

Write a computer program that produces the desired output from the given input.

Input: The number of elements in a finite set S
Output: The number of derangements on S

Expert Solution
Step 1

Since you are not mentioning the programming language, here we are using C++ to complete the program.

PROGRAM:

#include <bits/stdc++.h>

using namespace std;

//derange_count() function

int derange_count(int n)

{

// Base case

if (n == 1) return 0;

if (n == 0) return 1;

if (n == 2) return 2;

 //counting the Derangements

return ((n - 1) * (derange_count(n - 1) +derange_count(n - 2)));

}

//main() function

int main()

{

    int n;

    cout<<"\nEnter number of elements is the finite set:";

    cin>>n;

    cout << "\nNumber of Derangements: "

         << derange_count(n);

    return 0;

}
