#184041 - A quick question
Thinking about this today,On my android phone there is a screen lock feature where you have to draw a pattern connecting a grid of 9 points, each point can only have two lines going to it,you don't have to connect all the points,so you have to connect at least two points, how many possible patterns are there, and is there a proof for an arbitrary size grid of points?
I am sure you could solve it programatically but I am after an analytic answer
