If a sequence of numbers is as follows
A B C
such that
0<A<2
0<B<2
0<C<1

What is a convenient way to determine the number of combinations in this sequence
 
What kind of numbers?

Please give the exact and complete language of the problem you are trying to solve. What you have written makes no sense.
 
I'm not quite sure what you are asking. As I read it, you want to know the number of different sequences A, B, C such that 0<A<2, 0<B<2, and 0<C<1. But if A, B, and C are required to be integers, then the answer is "none" (there is no integer C between 0 and 1); and if they can be any real numbers, then the answer is "infinitely many", which is not very interesting.

Also, you can't be using the word "combinations" in its technical sense, as clearly order matters.

Can you clarify the question?

Since A is between 0 and 2 there are infinite number of numbers that A can be
Since B is between 0 and 2 there are infinite number of numbers that B can be
Since C is between 0 and 1 there are infinite number of numbers that C can be

I'm sorry I meant
0<=A<=2 : 0 1 2
0<=B<=2 : 0 1 2
0<=C<=1 : 0 1

That makes a huge difference! This is one of many reasons we ask to see your own thoughts on a problem (here). It helps us know what you mean.

How many ways are there to choose A?

For each of those, how many ways are there to choose B?

How many ways, therefore, are there to choose a pair A, B?

Now continue.

0<=C<=1 : 0 1

The terms \(\displaystyle ABC\) count is \(\displaystyle 3\cdot 3\cdot 2=18 \)
I not know what more you are asking.
 
Yes. The fast way to figure it out is pka's way, but you can also do it by systematic listing.
