Abstract
The pigeonhole principle in theory, is a simple concept that many people can understand and is applicable to a variety of problems. However, in order to apply the pigeonhole principle, certain conditions must be met within the given parameter, greatly increasing the difficulty. Nonetheless, with proper set-up, the pigeonhole principle can be used to eliminate extensive calculation and simplify the process.
