来自itertools的组合

import itertools
col_names = ["aa","bb", "cc", "dd"]
all_combinations = itertools.chain(*[itertools.combinations(col_names,i+1) for i,_ in enumerate(col_names)])
print(list(all_combinations))

看看itertools.combination:

itertools.combinations (iterable, r) 返回元素的r长度子序列 输入迭代对象。 组合是按字典排序顺序发出的。那么，如果 Input iterable已排序，则 组合元组将在 排序顺序。

从2.6开始，电池包括在内!

下面是一个使用递归的例子:

>>> import copy
>>> def combinations(target,data):
...     for i in range(len(data)):
...         new_target = copy.copy(target)
...         new_data = copy.copy(data)
...         new_target.append(data[i])
...         new_data = data[i+1:]
...         print new_target
...         combinations(new_target,
...                      new_data)
...                      
... 
>>> target = []
>>> data = ['a','b','c','d']
>>> 
>>> combinations(target,data)
['a']
['a', 'b']
['a', 'b', 'c']
['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']
['a', 'b', 'd']
['a', 'c']
['a', 'c', 'd']
['a', 'd']
['b']
['b', 'c']
['b', 'c', 'd']
['b', 'd']
['c']
['c', 'd']
['d']

下面是itertools.combination的两个实现

返回一个列表的函数

def combinations(lst, depth, start=0, items=[]):
    if depth <= 0:
        return [items]
    out = []
    for i in range(start, len(lst)):
        out += combinations(lst, depth - 1, i + 1, items + [lst[i]])
    return out

一个返回一个生成器

def combinations(lst, depth, start=0, prepend=[]):
    if depth <= 0:
        yield prepend
    else:
        for i in range(start, len(lst)):
            for c in combinations(lst, depth - 1, i + 1, prepend + [lst[i]]):
                yield c

请注意，建议为它们提供一个helper函数，因为prepend参数是静态的，不会随着每次调用而改变

print([c for c in combinations([1, 2, 3, 4], 3)])
# [[1, 2, 3], [1, 2, 4], [1, 3, 4], [2, 3, 4]]

# get a hold of prepend
prepend = [c for c in combinations([], -1)][0]
prepend.append(None)

print([c for c in combinations([1, 2, 3, 4], 3)])
# [[None, 1, 2, 3], [None, 1, 2, 4], [None, 1, 3, 4], [None, 2, 3, 4]]

这是一个很肤浅的例子，但小心为妙

正如James Brady提到的，你的itertools.combination是一个键。但这并不是一个完整的解决方案。

解决方案1

import itertools
def all(lst):
    # ci is a bitmask which denotes particular combination,
    # see explanation below
    for ci in range(1, 2**len(lst)):
        yield tuple(itertools.compress(
            lst,
            [ci & (1<<k) for k in  range(0, len(lst))]
        ))

解决方案2

import itertools
def all_combs(lst):
    for r in range(1, len(lst)+1):
        for comb in itertools.combinations(lst, r):
            yield comb

例子

>>> list(all_combs([1,2,3]))
[(1,), (2,), (3,), (1, 2), (1, 3), (2, 3), (1, 2, 3)]
>>> len(list(all_combs([1,2,3])))
7
>>> len(list(all_combs(range(0, 15))))
32767
>>> list(all([1,2,3]))
[(1,), (2,), (1, 2), (3,), (1, 3), (2, 3), (1, 2, 3)]
>>> len(list(all(range(15))))
32767

解释

假设数组A的长度为N，让长度为N的位掩码B表示一个特定的组合C。如果B[i]是1，那么A[i]属于组合C。

方案1说明

所以我们可以遍历所有的位掩码并用这个位掩码过滤源数组A，这可以通过itertools。compress来完成。

方案2说明

.．.或者，我们可以用组合来表示

现在我们需要考虑这样的情况，当B中只有一个1，然后只有两个1，等等。每种情况都属于特定的组合。 因此，一旦我们组合所有的组合集，我们将得到所有的子序列。

同样，很明显，在这种情况下，所有可能的组合的数量是2^N - 1。当所有B[i]都为零时，我们省略大小写，因为我们假设空集不是一个组合。否则，就不要减去1。

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)
