我想我应该为那些寻求答案的人添加这个函数，而不需要导入itertools或任何其他额外的库。

def powerSet(items):
    """
    Power set generator: get all possible combinations of a list’s elements

    Input:
        items is a list
    Output:
        returns 2**n combination lists one at a time using a generator 

    Reference: edx.org 6.00.2x Lecture 2 - Decision Trees and dynamic programming
    """

    N = len(items)
    # enumerate the 2**N possible combinations
    for i in range(2**N):
        combo = []
        for j in range(N):
            # test bit jth of integer i
            if (i >> j) % 2 == 1:
                combo.append(items[j])
        yield combo

简单Yield Generator用法:

for i in powerSet([1,2,3,4]):
    print (i, ", ",  end="")

以上用法示例的输出:

[], [1], [2], [1, 2], [3], [1, 3], [2, 3], [1, 2, 3], [4]. [1, 4], [2, 4], [1, 2, 4], [3, 4], [1, 3, 4], [2, 3, 4], [1, 2, 3, 4],

In comments under the highly upvoted answer by @Dan H, mention is made of the powerset() recipe in the itertools documentation—including one by Dan himself. However, so far no one has posted it as an answer. Since it's probably one of the better if not the best approach to the problem—and given a little encouragement from another commenter, it's shown below. The function produces all unique combinations of the list elements of every length possible (including those containing zero and all the elements).

注意:如果略有不同，目标是只获得唯一元素的组合，将s = list(iterable)一行更改为s = list(set(iterable))以消除任何重复的元素。无论如何，iterable最终被转换为列表这一事实意味着它将与生成器一起工作(与其他几个答案不同)。

from itertools import chain, combinations

def powerset(iterable):
    "powerset([1,2,3]) --> () (1,) (2,) (3,) (1,2) (1,3) (2,3) (1,2,3)"
    s = list(iterable)  # allows duplicate elements
    return chain.from_iterable(combinations(s, r) for r in range(len(s)+1))

stuff = [1, 2, 3]
for i, combo in enumerate(powerset(stuff), 1):
    print('combo #{}: {}'.format(i, combo))

输出:

combo #1: ()
combo #2: (1,)
combo #3: (2,)
combo #4: (3,)
combo #5: (1, 2)
combo #6: (1, 3)
combo #7: (2, 3)
combo #8: (1, 2, 3)

我在这个话题上有点晚了，但我想我可以帮助别人。

你可以使用itertools中的product:

from itertools import product

n = [1, 2, 3]

result = product(n, repeat=3) # You can change the repeat more then n length

print(list(result))

输出:

[(1, 1, 1), (1, 1, 2), (1, 1, 3), (1, 2, 1), (1, 2, 2), (1, 2, 3), (1, 3, 1),
 (1, 3, 2), (1, 3, 3), (2, 1, 1), (2, 1, 2), (2, 1, 3), (2, 2, 1), (2, 2, 2),
 (2, 2, 3), (2, 3, 1), (2, 3, 2), (2, 3, 3), (3, 1, 1), (3, 1, 2), (3, 1, 3), 
(3, 2, 1), (3, 2, 2), (3, 2, 3), (3, 3, 1), (3, 3, 2), (3, 3, 3)]

另一个例子，但是改变了repeat参数:

from itertools import product

n = [1, 2, 3]

result = product(n, repeat=4) # Changing repeat to 4
print(list(result))

输出:

(1, 1, 2, 3), (1, 1, 3, 1), (1, 1, 3, 2), (1, 1, 3, 3), (1, 2, 1, 1), 
(1, 2, 1, 2), (1, 2, 1, 3), (1, 2, 2, 1), (1, 2, 2, 2), (1, 2, 2, 3), 
(1, 2, 3, 1), (1, 2, 3, 2), (1, 2, 3, 3), (1, 3, 1, 1), (1, 3, 1, 2), 
(1, 3, 1, 3), (1, 3, 2, 1), (1, 3, 2, 2), (1, 3, 2, 3), (1, 3, 3, 1), 
(1, 3, 3, 2), (1, 3, 3, 3), (2, 1, 1, 1), (2, 1, 1, 2), (2, 1, 1, 3), 
(2, 1, 2, 1), (2, 1, 2, 2), (2, 1, 2, 3), (2, 1, 3, 1), (2, 1, 3, 2),
 (2, 1, 3, 3), (2, 2, 1, 1), (2, 2, 1, 2), (2, 2, 1, 3), (2, 2, 2, 1), 
(2, 2, 2, 2), (2, 2, 2, 3), (2, 2, 3, 1), (2, 2, 3, 2), (2, 2, 3, 3), 
(2, 3, 1, 1), (2, 3, 1, 2), (2, 3, 1, 3), (2, 3, 2, 1), (2, 3, 2, 2), 
(2, 3, 2, 3), (2, 3, 3, 1), (2, 3, 3, 2), (2, 3, 3, 3), (3, 1, 1, 1), 
(3, 1, 1, 2), (3, 1, 1, 3), (3, 1, 2, 1), (3, 1, 2, 2), (3, 1, 2, 3), 
(3, 1, 3, 1), (3, 1, 3, 2), (3, 1, 3, 3), (3, 2, 1, 1), (3, 2, 1, 2), 
(3, 2, 1, 3), (3, 2, 2, 1), (3, 2, 2, 2), (3, 2, 2, 3), (3, 2, 3, 1), 
(3, 2, 3, 2), (3, 2, 3, 3), (3, 3, 1, 1), (3, 3, 1, 2), (3, 3, 1, 3), 
(3, 3, 2, 1), (3, 3, 2, 2), (3, 3, 2, 3), (3, 3, 3, 1), (3, 3, 3, 2), 
(3, 3, 3, 3)]```

如文档中所述

def combinations(iterable, r):
    # combinations('ABCD', 2) --> AB AC AD BC BD CD
    # combinations(range(4), 3) --> 012 013 023 123
    pool = tuple(iterable)
    n = len(pool)
    if r > n:
        return
    indices = list(range(r))
    yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)
    while True:
        for i in reversed(range(r)):
            if indices[i] != i + n - r:
                break
        else:
            return
        indices[i] += 1
        for j in range(i+1, r):
            indices[j] = indices[j-1] + 1
        yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)


x = [2, 3, 4, 5, 1, 6, 4, 7, 8, 3, 9]
for i in combinations(x, 2):
    print i

我来晚了，但我想分享我找到的解决这个问题的方法: 具体来说，我想要做顺序组合，所以对于“STAR”，我想要“STAR”，“TA”，“AR”，但不是“SR”。

lst = [S, T, A, R]
lstCombos = []
for Length in range(0,len(lst)+1):
    for i in lst:
        lstCombos.append(lst[lst.index(i):lst.index(i)+Length])

可以通过在最后一行之前添加额外的if来过滤重复:

lst = [S, T, A, R]
lstCombos = []
for Length in range(0,len(lst)+1):
    for i in lst:
         if not lst[lst.index(i):lst.index(i)+Length]) in lstCombos:
             lstCombos.append(lst[lst.index(i):lst.index(i)+Length])

如果由于某种原因，这将在输出中返回空白列表，这发生在我身上，我添加:

for subList in lstCombos:
    if subList = '':
         lstCombos.remove(subList)

在Python 3中没有itertools，你可以这样做:

def combinations(arr, carry):
    for i in range(len(arr)):
        yield carry + arr[i]
        yield from combinations(arr[i + 1:], carry + arr[i])

其中最初的carry = ""。
