combinations
Things joined together
Combinations is the plural of combination—things joined or mixed together.
A combination of factors produced the result.
Combinations are also one-piece undergarments covering the torso and legs, now old-fashioned: He stripped down to his combinations.
In mathematics, combinations are selections of items where order doesn't matter, unlike permutations.
