Thanks for the nice words. But the honor belongs to Tord. He opened my eyes :-)
The implementation was of course ease. Perhaps you mislead me with the subject.
I was thinking too much of combinations, but it was still fun. My first try was
alos cumbersome. If we look at Pascal's triangle:

        1
       1 1
      1 2 1
     1 3 3 1

For some reason, I wanted to generate the individal numbers 1 3 3 1, instead of
what Tord mentioned: you need all of those anyway, and generating the individual
terms is only much more complicated.

Cheers,
Dieter

PS. I just read your profile. Interesting that you give amazon as your Web page
(I of course saw your review).
