~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You have the set consisting of 8 different numbers/objects. 

It can be arranged by 8! = 1*2*3*4*5*6*7*8 = 40320 ways.

Each arrangement is a permutation of these 8 objects/numbers.

The canonical name (term) for these arrangements is "permutations".

If this conception is new for you, you can learn about it from the lesson Introduction to Permutations in this site.
