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。

这是我用c++写的命题
我尽可能少地限制迭代器类型,所以这个解决方案假设只有前向迭代器,它可以是const_iterator。这应该适用于任何标准容器。在参数没有意义的情况下,它抛出std:: invalid_argument
#include <vector>
#include <stdexcept>
template <typename Fci> // Fci - forward const iterator
std::vector<std::vector<Fci> >
enumerate_combinations(Fci begin, Fci end, unsigned int combination_size)
{
if(begin == end && combination_size > 0u)
throw std::invalid_argument("empty set and positive combination size!");
std::vector<std::vector<Fci> > result; // empty set of combinations
if(combination_size == 0u) return result; // there is exactly one combination of
// size 0 - emty set
std::vector<Fci> current_combination;
current_combination.reserve(combination_size + 1u); // I reserve one aditional slot
// in my vector to store
// the end sentinel there.
// The code is cleaner thanks to that
for(unsigned int i = 0u; i < combination_size && begin != end; ++i, ++begin)
{
current_combination.push_back(begin); // Construction of the first combination
}
// Since I assume the itarators support only incrementing, I have to iterate over
// the set to get its size, which is expensive. Here I had to itrate anyway to
// produce the first cobination, so I use the loop to also check the size.
if(current_combination.size() < combination_size)
throw std::invalid_argument("combination size > set size!");
result.push_back(current_combination); // Store the first combination in the results set
current_combination.push_back(end); // Here I add mentioned earlier sentinel to
// simplyfy rest of the code. If I did it
// earlier, previous statement would get ugly.
while(true)
{
unsigned int i = combination_size;
Fci tmp; // Thanks to the sentinel I can find first
do // iterator to change, simply by scaning
{ // from right to left and looking for the
tmp = current_combination[--i]; // first "bubble". The fact, that it's
++tmp; // a forward iterator makes it ugly but I
} // can't help it.
while(i > 0u && tmp == current_combination[i + 1u]);
// Here is probably my most obfuscated expression.
// Loop above looks for a "bubble". If there is no "bubble", that means, that
// current_combination is the last combination, Expression in the if statement
// below evaluates to true and the function exits returning result.
// If the "bubble" is found however, the ststement below has a sideeffect of
// incrementing the first iterator to the left of the "bubble".
if(++current_combination[i] == current_combination[i + 1u])
return result;
// Rest of the code sets posiotons of the rest of the iterstors
// (if there are any), that are to the right of the incremented one,
// to form next combination
while(++i < combination_size)
{
current_combination[i] = current_combination[i - 1u];
++current_combination[i];
}
// Below is the ugly side of using the sentinel. Well it had to haave some
// disadvantage. Try without it.
result.push_back(std::vector<Fci>(current_combination.begin(),
current_combination.end() - 1));
}
}

Clojure版本:
(defn comb [k l]
(if (= 1 k) (map vector l)
(apply concat
(map-indexed
#(map (fn [x] (conj x %2))
(comb (dec k) (drop (inc %1) l)))
l))))
假设你的字母数组是这样的:"ABCDEFGH"。你有三个下标(i, j, k)来表示你要用哪个字母来表示当前单词。
A B C D E F G H ^ ^ ^ i j k
首先你改变k,所以下一步看起来像这样:
A B C D E F G H ^ ^ ^ i j k
如果你到达终点,你继续改变j和k。
A B C D E F G H ^ ^ ^ i j k A B C D E F G H ^ ^ ^ i j k
一旦j达到G, i也开始变化。
A B C D E F G H ^ ^ ^ i j k A B C D E F G H ^ ^ ^ i j k ...

《计算机编程艺术,卷4A:组合算法,第1部分》第7.2.1.3节中算法L(字典组合)的C代码:

{
// for (int j = 1; j <= t; j++)
for (int j = t; j > 0; j--)

一个简洁的Javascript解决方案:
Array.prototype.combine=function combine(k){
var toCombine=this;
var last;
function combi(n,comb){
var combs=[];
for ( var x=0,y=comb.length;x<y;x++){
for ( var l=0,m=toCombine.length;l<m;l++){
combs.push(comb[x]+toCombine[l]);
}
}
if (n<k-1){
n++;
combi(n,combs);
} else{last=combs;}
}
combi(1,toCombine);
return last;
}
// Example:
// var toCombine=['a','b','c'];
// var results=toCombine.combine(4);

while i > -1:
for j in range(i+1, k):
a[j] = a[j-1]+1
i=j
yield a
while a[i] == i + n - k:
i -= 1
a[i] += 1
