The answer to the problem wherein a computer simulation tossed a 10-faced die 5 times and you have to compute for the possible outcomes is simple. The answer is 18,144, 000 possible outcomes (if it's a combination). I got this through simply getting the 10! (3,628,800) and multiplying it 5.

However, if order is important (permutation), the number of possible outcomes is is 30240.
