2. Consider the python code below: Numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] Counter = 0 for i in Numbers:      for j in Numbers:           if j != i:              for k in Numbers:                   if k != i and k != j:                   print(i, j, k)                   Counter = Counter +1 print(Counter) (a) What is the above code counting? (Permutations/combinations with/without repetition) (b) If Numbers has nentries, give a closed formula for the number of objects being counted.
