THE CATALAN NUMBER | Grid Problem | Complete Explanation A simple grid problem leads us to one of the most beautiful sequences in combinatorics: Catalan Numbers. In this video, we start with a basic grid-path problem and gradually uncover the idea behind the Catalan number: C n ​ = n+1 1 ​ ( n 2n ​ ) We discuss the restriction on the paths, understand why simply counting all paths doesn't work, and see how the final expression emerges. A great problem to understand the thinking behind Catalan numbers rather than just memorising the formula.
