Stirling numbers are a part of combinatorial mathematics and come in two main types: the Stirling numbers of the first kind and the Stirling numbers of the second kind. 1. **Stirling Numbers of the First Kind**: Denoted by \( c(n, k) \), these numbers count the number of permutations of \( n \) elements with exactly \( k \) disjoint cycles.
