我想写一个函数,它以一个字母数组作为参数,并从中选择一些字母。

假设您提供了一个包含8个字母的数组,并希望从中选择3个字母。那么你应该得到:

8! / ((8 - 3)! * 3!) = 56

数组(或单词),每个数组由3个字母组成。

下面是我的Scala解决方案:

def combinations[A](s: List[A], k: Int): List[List[A]] = 
  if (k > s.length) Nil
  else if (k == 1) s.map(List(_))
  else combinations(s.tail, k - 1).map(s.head :: _) ::: combinations(s.tail, k)

c#简单算法。 (我发布它是因为我试图使用你们上传的那个,但由于某种原因我无法编译它——扩展一个类?所以我自己写了一个,以防别人遇到和我一样的问题)。 顺便说一下,除了基本的编程,我对c#没什么兴趣,但是这个工作得很好。

public static List<List<int>> GetSubsetsOfSizeK(List<int> lInputSet, int k)
        {
            List<List<int>> lSubsets = new List<List<int>>();
            GetSubsetsOfSizeK_rec(lInputSet, k, 0, new List<int>(), lSubsets);
            return lSubsets;
        }

public static void GetSubsetsOfSizeK_rec(List<int> lInputSet, int k, int i, List<int> lCurrSet, List<List<int>> lSubsets)
        {
            if (lCurrSet.Count == k)
            {
                lSubsets.Add(lCurrSet);
                return;
            }

            if (i >= lInputSet.Count)
                return;

            List<int> lWith = new List<int>(lCurrSet);
            List<int> lWithout = new List<int>(lCurrSet);
            lWith.Add(lInputSet[i++]);

            GetSubsetsOfSizeK_rec(lInputSet, k, i, lWith, lSubsets);
            GetSubsetsOfSizeK_rec(lInputSet, k, i, lWithout, lSubsets);
        }

GetSubsetsOfSizeK(set of type List<int>, integer k)

您可以修改它以遍历您正在处理的任何内容。

好运!

在VB。Net,该算法从一组数字(PoolArray)中收集n个数字的所有组合。例如,从“8,10,20,33,41,44,47”中选择5个选项的所有组合。

Sub CreateAllCombinationsOfPicksFromPool(ByVal PicksArray() As UInteger, ByVal PicksIndex As UInteger, ByVal PoolArray() As UInteger, ByVal PoolIndex As UInteger)
    If PicksIndex < PicksArray.Length Then
        For i As Integer = PoolIndex To PoolArray.Length - PicksArray.Length + PicksIndex
            PicksArray(PicksIndex) = PoolArray(i)
            CreateAllCombinationsOfPicksFromPool(PicksArray, PicksIndex + 1, PoolArray, i + 1)
        Next
    Else
        ' completed combination. build your collections using PicksArray.
    End If
End Sub

        Dim PoolArray() As UInteger = Array.ConvertAll("8,10,20,33,41,44,47".Split(","), Function(u) UInteger.Parse(u))
        Dim nPicks as UInteger = 5
        Dim Picks(nPicks - 1) As UInteger
        CreateAllCombinationsOfPicksFromPool(Picks, 0, PoolArray, 0)

我有一个用于project euler的排列算法,用python编写:

def missing(miss,src):
    "Returns the list of items in src not present in miss"
    return [i for i in src if i not in miss]


def permutation_gen(n,l):
    "Generates all the permutations of n items of the l list"
    for i in l:
        if n<=1: yield [i]
        r = [i]
        for j in permutation_gen(n-1,missing([i],l)):  yield r+j

If

n<len(l) 

你应该有所有你需要的组合,没有重复,你需要吗?

它是一个生成器,所以你可以这样使用它:

for comb in permutation_gen(3,list("ABCDEFGH")):
    print comb 

像Andrea Ambu一样用Python写的,但不是硬编码来选择三个。

def combinations(list, k):
    """Choose combinations of list, choosing k elements(no repeats)"""
    if len(list) < k:
        return []
    else:
        seq = [i for i in range(k)]
        while seq:
            print [list[index] for index in seq]
            seq = get_next_combination(len(list), k, seq)

def get_next_combination(num_elements, k, seq):
        index_to_move = find_index_to_move(num_elements, seq)
        if index_to_move == None:
            return None
        else:
            seq[index_to_move] += 1

            #for every element past this sequence, move it down
            for i, elem in enumerate(seq[(index_to_move+1):]):
                seq[i + 1 + index_to_move] = seq[index_to_move] + i + 1

            return seq

def find_index_to_move(num_elements, seq):
        """Tells which index should be moved"""
        for rev_index, elem in enumerate(reversed(seq)):
            if elem < (num_elements - rev_index - 1):
                return len(seq) - rev_index - 1
        return None   

还有另一个递归解决方案(你应该能够使用字母而不是数字)使用堆栈,虽然比大多数更短:

stack = [] 
def choose(n,x):
   r(0,0,n+1,x)

def r(p, c, n,x):
   if x-c == 0:
      print stack
      return

   for i in range(p, n-(x-1)+c):
      stack.append(i)
      r(i+1,c+1,n,x)
      stack.pop()

4选3或者我想要从0到4的所有3种数字组合

choose(4,3) 

[0, 1, 2]
[0, 1, 3]
[0, 1, 4]
[0, 2, 3]
[0, 2, 4]
[0, 3, 4]
[1, 2, 3]
[1, 2, 4]
[1, 3, 4]
[2, 3, 4]
