如果你不想使用组合库，这里是解决方案:

nums = [1,2,3]
p = [[]]
fnl = [[],nums]

for i in range(len(nums)):
    for j in range(i+1,len(nums)):
        p[-1].append([i,j])

for i in range(len(nums)-3):
    p.append([])
    for m in p[-2]:
        p[-1].append(m+[m[-1]+1])

for i in p:
    for j in i:
        n = []
        for m in j:
            if m < len(nums):
                n.append(nums[m])
        if n not in fnl:
            fnl.append(n)

for i in nums:
    if [i] not in fnl:
        fnl.append([i])

print(fnl)

输出:

[[], [1, 2, 3], [1, 2], [1, 3], [2, 3], [1], [2], [3]]

我喜欢这个问题，因为有很多方法来实现它。我决定为未来创造一个参考答案。

在生产中使用什么?

intertools的文档有一个独立的例子，为什么不在你的代码中使用它呢?一些人建议使用more_itertools。Powerset，但它具有完全相同的实现!如果我是你，我不会为一个小东西安装整个软件包。也许这是最好的方法:

import itertools

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

其他可能的方法

方法0:使用组合

import itertools

def subsets(nums):
    result = []
    for i in range(len(nums) + 1):
        result += itertools.combinations(nums, i)
    return result

方法1:简单的递归

def subsets(nums):
    result = []

    def powerset(alist, index, curr):
        if index == len(alist):
            result.append(curr)
            return

        powerset(alist, index + 1, curr + [alist[index]])
        powerset(alist, index + 1, curr)

    powerset(nums, 0, [])
    return result

方法2:回溯

def subsets(nums):
    result = []

    def backtrack(index, curr, k):
        if len(curr) == k:
            result.append(list(curr))
            return
        for i in range(index, len(nums)):
            curr.append(nums[i])
            backtrack(i + 1, curr, k)
            curr.pop()

    for k in range(len(nums) + 1):
        backtrack(0, [], k)
    return result

or

def subsets(nums):
    result = []

    def dfs(nums, index, path, result):
        result.append(path)
        for i in range(index, len(nums)):
            dfs(nums, i + 1, path + [nums[i]], result)

    dfs(nums, 0, [], result)
    return result

方法3:位掩码

def subsets(nums):
    res = []
    n = len(nums)
    for i in range(1 << n):
        aset = []
        for j in range(n):
            value = (1 << j) & i  # value = (i >> j) & 1
            if value:
                aset.append(nums[j])
        res.append(aset)
    return res

或者(不是位掩码，直觉上是2^n个子集)

def subsets(nums):
    subsets = []
    expected_subsets = 2 ** len(nums)

    def generate_subset(subset, nums):
        if len(subsets) >= expected_subsets:
            return
        if len(subsets) < expected_subsets:
            subsets.append(subset)
        for i in range(len(nums)):
            generate_subset(subset + [nums[i]], nums[i + 1:])

    generate_subset([], nums)
    return subsets

方法4:级联

def subsets(nums):
    result = [[]]
    for i in range(len(nums)):
        for j in range(len(result)):
            subset = list(result[j])
            subset.append(nums[i])
            result.append(subset)
    return result

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 = ""。

这是我的实现

def get_combinations(list_of_things):
"""gets every combination of things in a list returned as a list of lists

Should be read : add all combinations of a certain size to the end of a list for every possible size in the
the list_of_things.

"""
list_of_combinations = [list(combinations_of_a_certain_size)
                        for possible_size_of_combinations in range(1,  len(list_of_things))
                        for combinations_of_a_certain_size in itertools.combinations(list_of_things,
                                                                                     possible_size_of_combinations)]
return list_of_combinations

from itertools import combinations


features = ['A', 'B', 'C']
tmp = []
for i in range(len(features)):
    oc = combinations(features, i + 1)
    for c in oc:
        tmp.append(list(c))

输出

[
 ['A'],
 ['B'],
 ['C'],
 ['A', 'B'],
 ['A', 'C'],
 ['B', 'C'],
 ['A', 'B', 'C']
]

这个答案漏掉了一个方面:OP要求所有的组合……不仅仅是长度为r的组合。

所以你要么要遍历所有长度为L的循环:

import itertools

stuff = [1, 2, 3]
for L in range(len(stuff) + 1):
    for subset in itertools.combinations(stuff, L):
        print(subset)

或者——如果你想变得时髦(或者让那些在你之后阅读你的代码的人动脑筋)——你可以生成“组合()”生成器链，并遍历它:

from itertools import chain, combinations
def all_subsets(ss):
    return chain(*map(lambda x: combinations(ss, x), range(0, len(ss)+1)))

for subset in all_subsets(stuff):
    print(subset)
