Mutually exclusive tagged categories have ordered sizes=[3, 5]. Give (total choices, each prefix’s total), retaining an empty list.
G001 — Mutually exclusive tagged categories have ordered sizes=[3, 5]. Give (total choices, each prefix’s total), retaining an empty list.Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.
Before
declared finite tagged choices or full-product protocol
After
combinatorial counts,not probabilities or independence
Conditions: none
Addition uses disjoint tags and multiplication uses the declared full cross-stage protocol;neither is a probability-independence assumption.
Rule: finite_counting_protocol_scope · Uses: G001
Before
ordered sizes=[3, 5]
After
initial accumulator=0
Conditions: none
The empty disjoint sum is0;the empty full product is1,representing one empty choice sequence.
Rule: counting_prefix_initial · Uses: G001, S001
Before
prefix count1 := sum(0, 3)
After
prefix count1 = 3
Conditions: none
Multiply in a stage of the declared full product,or add a disjoint tagged class,retaining every prefix.
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S002
Before
prefix through position0;new size=3
After
prefix total=3
Conditions: none
A full product stays0 after a zero factor;the disjoint sum continues adding in order.Do not interchange these protocols.
Rule: counting_prefix_update · Uses: G001, S003
Before
prefix count2 := sum(3, 5)
After
prefix count2 = 8
Conditions: none
Multiply in a stage of the declared full product,or add a disjoint tagged class,retaining every prefix.
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S004
Before
prefix through position1;new size=5
After
prefix total=8
Conditions: none
A full product stays0 after a zero factor;the disjoint sum continues adding in order.Do not interchange these protocols.
Rule: counting_prefix_update · Uses: G001, S005
