    it's actually quite simple,just go 163+162+161+159+158.....................5+4+3+2+1= ur answer.

    You can't compare 163 vs 163... it's 162. Plus there's a simpler way. Just multiply the permutation 163 x 162 and delete the duplicates by dividing by 2. No need to use the arithmetic series formula.

    i have many models of calculators but 9.99999999e99 is the largest number allowed in all scientific calculators i know of. Only supercomputer and some main frames allow numbers > 9.99999999e99. You know how to use RPN?

    nothing fancy about factorial, so don't fret over it.

    thanks for the correction. I mis-interpreted sec as grade. I dont know much about the education system in singapore. But i do know singaporean students are the most dedicated in studying.
