Thanks for these tips.

True, I don't see any issue.

Also, the combinations function looks like it will overflow for large N and small K. You can avoid this by alternately multiplying and dividing. For example, compute 10C3 by doing 8 * 9 / 2 * 10 / 3. This has the remarkable property that the divisions always result in an integer value!

I have to try this; will the program fit? That is the question.
