Go up one level in this thread

Here are the numbers for trajectory enumerations (distinct legal pathways) for
the first few ply depth values:

ply: 0   count: 1
ply: 1   count: 20
ply: 2   count: 400
ply: 3   count: 8902
ply: 4   count: 197281
ply: 5   count: 4865609

For ply=6, the number is a little under 120 million and for ply=7 it's about 3.1
billion.  I haven't calculated ply=8 yet, but is should be just under 100
billion.
