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)

Jim:  You should *not* do people's homework for them!

cheers,

Rolf
