3EXP. GOES LIKE THIS .......
i can select 3 elements ...
case 1 ..
3 distinct elements ...
total no. of ways ..
100C3 ...
now these three elements i can arrange in such a way that a<b<c
or a<c<b
hence total ways .... 2(100C3) ..
case 2 ..
2 elements same ...
total ways ..
100C2 ...
i can arrange each set picked only in 1 way
case1+case2 = 100C2 + 2(100C3) ....
