%
%  Parameters:
%
%    Input, integer K, the number of elements each K subset must
%    have.  1 <= K <= N.
%
%    Input, integer N, the number of elements in the master set.
%    N must be positive.
%
%    Input, integer T(K), describes a K subset.  T(I) is the I-th
%    element of the K subset.  The elements must be listed in DESCENDING order.
%
%    Output, integer RANK, the rank of the subset.
%

%
%  Check.
