"""

This is a Python implementation for questions involving task assignments between people.

Here Bitmasking and DP are used for solving this.

Question :-

We have N tasks and M people. Each person in M can do only certain of these tasks. Also

a person can do only one task and a task is performed only by one person.

Find the total no of ways in which the tasks can be distributed.
