a function that makes permutations in c

Question

#include <stdio.h>
int perm(int x, int y);
int main()
{
int perm(int x, int y){
int pro1=1, pro2=1, prrr;
for(int i=1; i<=x; i++){
pro1 = pro1 * i;
}
x=pro1;
for(int i=1; i<=y; i++){
pro2 = pro2 * i;
}
y=pro2;
prrr = x/(x-y);
return(prrr);
}

int x=10, y=2, permutation;
permutation = perm(x , y);
printf("%d", permutation);

}
I have used this code to compute permutations in c but it always prints out
1 . I don't understand what the problem is .

Answer 1

If you are calculating nPr formula you made a small mistake. The actual formula is n! / (n-r)!
What you did is n! / (n!-r!).
I have changed something in the code check it out

#include <stdio.h>
int perm(int x, int y);
int main()
{
int perm(int x, int y){
y=x-y;
int pro1=1, pro2=1, prrr;
for(int i=1; i<=x; i++){
pro1 = pro1 * i;
}
x=pro1;
for(int i=1; i<=y; i++){
pro2 = pro2 * i;
}
y=pro2;
prrr = x/y;
return(prrr);
}

int x=10, y=2, permutation;
permutation = perm(x , y);
printf("%d", permutation);

}

I added y=y-x to find n-r
Also prrr=x/y;

What output do you expect?
