This mean that there are: n!/(n-4)! possible orders. As ‘n’ is 4 (number of digits available). 4!/0! which becomes 4x3x2x1/1 which simplifies to 24. That means that there are 24 possible combinations of codes. This would take you about two or three minutes to input all possible codes. Unless an alarm goes off if you don’t get it right in 3 tries *straightens calculator again* Kick the fucking door in well ‘technically’ the code is most likley 1970. statistically, a majority of people, when told to choose a 4 digit code will choose their birth year. and this key pad is obviously a few years old to put it nicely, thats most likley it. some sherlock holmes shit just went down over here No, no, no. Don’t base your deductions of psychology. Let’s talk chemistry. When you first press a button, there’s more of the natural oils on your skin, and therefore it wears down the numbers on the keys faster. Obviously 0 is the first one, then. Try 0791 first. Sherlock out. woah. it got better and this is why the sherlock fandom could either rule the world or end it…. Close, but not quite, I think. People will almost always choose a number they can remember. What’s memorable about 0791? Try 0719 - a birthday, 19th of July. That is more likely. Those deductions are great and all, but unnecessary. The light is green. The door is already open. And that’s why we have a John Watson. This is “top 10 favorite posts” level. Omg, it’s actually on my dash! This post is like a fossil! I would love if the code was something totally different and the wear was intentional to mislead Most places change the code periodically.So… Not even necessarily intentional - Just it was just installed at the start of the last period of the code and the code was just changed. -- source link
