Okay, I get you. Thanks Bertie.
This tell me my missing category that is certainly true but the permutations are still causing problems.
I think that I have it all sorted now.
4 letters are chosen from the alphabet. And these are supposed to be the number of possibilities but something is wrong!
Letters all different = 26*25*24*23=358800
letters 2 the same and other 2 different= 26*1*25*24*4C2= 93600
letters 2 pairs = 26*1*25*1*4C2 divided by a half (got it) = 1950
I had to halve it because for each pair left there are 2 that are the same.
letters 3 the same=26*1*1*25*4C3=2600
Letters all the same=26
Now I know it should add up to 264=456976 and they do so that is great!
