You'd like to study social networks. Consider the following 7 people {A,B,C,D,E,F,G} in a social network graph. (These people can be thought of as "nodes" or points drawn on a piece of paper.)  Here, we'd like to model "followers." How many different ways can we draw arrows between two people from these 7? Here, "A-->B" (A is a follower of B) is not the same as "B-->A" (B is a follower of A). Order matters here.
