For natural numbers $L,h$ , enumerate all $h$ -element subsets $S$ of $\{0,\ldots,L-1\}$ and, for each $S$ , enumerate all $h$ -element subsets $R$ of its complement. Let $P(L,h)$ be the resulting list of ordered pairs $(S,R)$ . Then

|P(L,h)|=\binom{L}{2h}\binom{2h}{h}.

The equality uses the usual convention that $\binom{L}{2h}=0$ when $2h>L$ .

This gives the exact number of entries required for the host's list of balanced disjoint subset pairs.
