Does anyone have a resource for a program or a website that can give you all possible round robin combinations? I want to be able to put the number or team into a bank of choices, and have the program spit out choices of multiple legs.
My google searches just come up with explanations of what a round robin is, or tables with possible bets based on legs.

william hill mobile app does something like what you seek
it does not show you the teams involved past the initial selections
see mine for today college football games
*****
one can use
http://www.mathsisfun.com/combinatorics/combinations-permutations-calculator.html
you have to enter the values
then select list them
example
5 choose 2
5 choose 3
hope for help

Not starting a new thread for a simple question so will revive an old one.
What is the fast way to find how many combinations you will have on a round robin? Say I want a 6 teamer and want to know how many possible 2 team combos? Or how many 4? I know it is probably simple.

Mostly simple. It’s a Chose formula. 6 Choose 2 for first. 6 Choose 4 for second. The formula for X Choose Y is:
C (X,Y)= X!/(Y! * (X-Y)!)
So 6 Choose 2 = C (6,2)= 6!/(2! * (6-2)!)
6! = 6*5*4*3*2*1 = 720
4! = 4*3*2*1 = 24
2! = 2*1 = 2
So you get 720 / (2 * 24) = 15
6 Choose 4 = C (6,4)= 6!/(4! * (6-4)!) = 15 also.
ETA: fixed formula

The race is not always to the swift, nor the battle to the strong; but that is the way to bet.

Am I reading this wrong? On the formula on top you have X! multiplying what comes after but when you show the work you appear to be dividing?

Thanks. Fixed formula above. It’s divided by.
