ok, very very simple, but I cannot for the life of me remember this.
why is (12)(13) = 132? I can't work it out...

A brain fart is a temporary lapse in memory or thinking that can occur when trying to recall something specific or solve a problem.
Permutations refer to the different ways in which a set of objects or elements can be arranged in a specific order.
Brain farts can occur when dealing with any type of problem or task, so they are not specific to permutations. However, they may be more common when trying to solve complex permutation problems due to the amount of information and calculations involved.
One way to prevent brain farts is to practice and familiarize yourself with different permutation techniques. It can also be helpful to take breaks and come back to the problem with a fresh mind. Additionally, double-checking your work and using tools such as calculators can help reduce the chances of making a mistake.
Yes, there are many strategies for solving permutation problems efficiently. Some common techniques include using factorial notation, using the fundamental counting principle, and identifying patterns or symmetries within the problem. It is also helpful to have a strong understanding of basic math concepts such as combinations and probability.
