Stupid sheep counting

Stupid Sheep Counting. It cannot be denied that the above derivation of the numbers of isomers of higher symmetries, eqns. (17) — (19), is much simpler than the derivation of the total number, eqn. (16). The former set of equations, (17) - (19), is a part of the analysis according to the method of stupid sheep counting, but the total number I is obtained without the knowledge of U. Instead, a "crude total" is introduced and denoted by J. 

Generalizations. The method of stupid sheep counting, including its adaptation to generating functions, was applied to all the c, k) isomers. Some generalizations are possible.
