If the order in which the numbers appear doesn´t matter, it is a Combination.
If the order does matter it is called a Permutation.

The 3-Digit Permutation Generator is very useful to generate all the possible straights of a 3-digit number. The digits in a 3-digit number (in a set with all unique digits like 123) can be arranged in 6 possible positions : 123,132,312,213,231,321.
A set with 2 identical digits & one unique digit (Ex.: 335) can be arranged in 3 possible positions : 335,353,533.
Example : you want to play all the possible straights of the number 123. To generate these 6 possible arrangements, you enter the number in the box and hit "generate". The Pick 3 permutation tool will generate these possible arrangements for you. Give it a try. Just enter any 3-digit number to find out exactly how it works.

The 3-Digit Combinations Generator can be used to generate all possible combinations of 3-digit numbers out of another group of numbers with more then 3 digits. You can adjust the settings to your personal needs.
Do you want 3 digit numbers with no repeat numbers (123)? Or only the combinations with one digit doubled (233)? Or just the triples (333)? Or a combination of these arrangements? The choice is yours.
This 3 digit combinations tool generates all possible combinations, but without looking at the exact order of the digits. Very useful if the lottery game you are playing offers combo or box plays. For all the possible straights of a 3-digit number, use the 3 digit permutation tool above.
