Basically:
1 Symbol and 1 Slot = 1 Result (1)
2 Symbols and 2 Slots = 2 Results (2x1)
3 Symbols and 3 Slots = 6 Results (3x2x1)
4 Symbols and 4 Slots = 24 Results (4x3x2x1)
5 Symbols and 5 Slots = 120 Results (5x4x3x2x1)
That's if the characters/symbols can't be repeated. But if they CAN be repeated:
1 Symbol and 1 Slot = 1 Result (1)
2 Symbols and 2 Slots = 4 Results(2x2)
3 Symbols and 3 Slots = 27 Results(3x3x3)
4 Symbols and 4 Slots = 256 Results (4x4x4x4)
5 Symbols and 5 Slots = 3125 Results (5x5x5x5x5)
Right?
