No. Max's last post was the number of combinations if the order was important.
Say, you've got 5 balls number 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. And Max's answer is if 2, 1, 3, 4, 5 is different to that.

No, my first post considers that the balls as independent of each other, thus their order doesn't matter. The probabilities of getting each final score are derived by adding up the probabilities of each possible end scenario, i.e. how many balls are in each compartment, not
which balls are in which compartment.
