(a) Find the generating function for the number of ways to
distribute indistinguishable objects to four
(distinguishable) locations so that
i) the first location receives
at least two objects.
ii) the first location
receives at most two objects.
iii) each location receives at
most four objects.

(which gives the number of ways to distribute 12 objects) in each of the
generating functions of (a).
