\title{
Binomial Coefficients
}
\description{
  Compute the Binomial coefficients.
}
\usage{
nchoosek(n, k)
}
\arguments{
  \item{n, k}{integers with \code{k} between 0 and \code{n}}
}
\details{
  Alias for the corresponding R function \code{choose}.
}
\value{
  integer, the Binomial coefficient \eqn{({n \over k})}.
}
\note{
  In Matlab/Octave, if \code{n} is a vector all combinations of \code{k}
  elements from vector \code{n} will be generated. Here, use the function
  \code{combs} instead.
