"""
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.
