Hi Nell, I may not have the right idea about this, but I think you need to do this in two steps if it can be done. Let's say you want a sequence of 20 (N) numbers between 0 and 10 that sums to 10 (M). You can enumerate the monotonically increasing sequences like this:c(0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1) c(0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,2) ... c(0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,10)
