Counting problems have to do with counting the total number of outcomes or logical possibilities of something. For example, if we have to flip a coin, we can easily count the number of outcomes. There are only two possible outcomes, either heads or tails. However, as our problem or data set becomes large and complex, so does the total number of possible outcomes. Counting the outcomes one by one may not be possible then and we will have to use some techniques to make our job easy. In this section we will look at a few such techniques.
