Problem

Forty teams play a tournament in which every team plays every other team exactly once. No ties occur, and each team has a $\displaystyle 50 \%$ chance of winning any game it plays. The probability that no two teams win the same number of games is $\displaystyle m/n,$ where $\displaystyle m_{}$ and $\displaystyle n_{}$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $\displaystyle \log_2 n.$
