It depends on whether the order of the numbers is important or not. For example, if 123456 is seen as a different code to 213456 then there are many more possible solutions.

If the order is unimportant, the number of possible combinations is equal to

binomial coefficient(15,6) = 5005

If the order is important, then the number of possible permutations is equal to

15! = ~1.3x1012

Is digital fortress introduced in Dan Brown's Digital Fortress possible?

Yes its possible. If a person spent the time to create such a powerful code that covered all possible combinations of attack then it would be a real life situation of digital fortress if it got out. To do this may take over a lifetime to make the basics and all of the possible combinations of the code.

How many different 3 letter combinations are there... for example airports are typically LHR LGW LAX etc how many different possible combinations are there?

There are 26 letters in the alphabet.If letters may be repeated in the airport code, then there are (26 x 26 x 26) = 17,576 possibilities.If adjacent letters can't be duplicates, then there are (26 x 25 x 25) = 16,250 possibilities.If all three letters must be different, then there are (26 x 25 x 24) = 15,600 possibilities.

How many combinations can you make with numbers 0-9 and using all the letters of the alphabet to make a 16 digit code. For example the code on the back of iTunes gift cards... Thanks?

combining the 26 letters with the 10 digits you have 36 possible characters to choose from to go into 16 slots. Grab the nearest scientific calculator, or use google or whatever you like, and use the permutation function nPr, inputting 36P16 you get 1.529x1023 different possible combinations to 4 significant figures. Alternatively if you don't have the use of the nPr function you can use the formula n!/(n-r)! where n is the characters available and r is the amount of slots they have to go in.
