contents The Riemann -Rock theorem plays a central role in the theory of Riemann surfaces with applications to several branches in Mathematics and Physics. Suppose $X$ ia a compact Riemann surface of genus $g$ and $P \in X$. By the Riemann-Roch theorem there exists a meromorphic function on $X$ having a pole at $P$ and is holomorphic in $X \setminus \{P\}$. The Weierstrass gap theorem gives more information on the order of the pole at $P$. It determines a sequence of $g$ distinct numbers $1 < n_k < 2g$, $1 \leq k \leq g$ for which a meromorphic function with the order $n_k$, fails to exist at $P$ and it can be obtained again as an application of Riemann-Roch theorem. In this note, we give proof of the Weierstrass gap theorem, using the dimensions of the cohomology groups and find an interesting combinatorial problem, which may be seen as a byproduct from the statement of the Weierstrass gap theorem. A short note is given at the end on Weierstrass points where a meromorphic function with lower order pole $\leq g$ exists and obtain some consequences of Weierstrass gap theorem.

The Weierstrass gap theorem gives more information on the order of the pole at $P$.
