Catalan's Problem
The problem of finding the number of different ways in which a Product of 
different ordered Factors canbe calculated by pairs (i.e., the number of Binary Bracketings of letters). For example, forthe four Factors 
, 
, 
, and 
, there are five possibilities: 
, 
, 
,
, and 
. The solution was given by Catalan in 1838 as
and is equal to the Catalan Number
