---
A set with n elements has 2^n subsets because each of the n elements
is either in or out of a given subset.
---
So, if 2^n = 1024
n = 10

10 ways to choose the 1st space
10 ways to choose the 2nd space
10 ways to choose the 3rd space
10 ways to choose the 4th space
----
Total = 10^4 = 10,000 license tags possible
