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。

为此，我在SQL Server 2005中创建了一个解决方案，并将其发布在我的网站上:http://www.jessemclain.com/downloads/code/sql/fn_GetMChooseNCombos.sql.htm
下面是一个例子来说明用法:
SELECT * FROM dbo.fn_GetMChooseNCombos('ABCD', 2, '')
结果:

JavaScript，基于生成器，递归方法:
function *nCk(n,k){ for(var i=n-1;i>=k-1;--i) if(k===1) yield [i]; else for(var temp of nCk(i,k-1)){ temp.unshift(i); yield temp; } } function test(){ try{ var n=parseInt(ninp.value); var k=parseInt(kinp.value); log.innerText=""; var stop=Date.now()+1000; if(k>=1) for(var res of nCk(n,k)) if(Date.now()<stop) log.innerText+=JSON.stringify(res)+" "; else{ log.innerText+="1 second passed, stopping here."; break; } }catch(ex){} } n:<input id="ninp" oninput="test()"> >= k:<input id="kinp" oninput="test()"> >= 1 <div id="log"></div>
通过这种方式(减少i和unshift())，它以递减的顺序生成组合和组合内的元素，有点赏心悦目。 测试在1秒后停止，因此输入奇怪的数字是相对安全的。
下面是我最近用Java写的一段代码，它计算并返回从“outOf”元素中“num”元素的所有组合。

public class Testing
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
// Test case num = 5, outOf = 8.
int num = 5;
int outOf = 8;
int[][] combinations = getCombinations(num, outOf);
for (int i = 0; i < combinations.length; i++)
{
for (int j = 0; j < combinations[i].length; j++)
{
System.out.print(combinations[i][j] + " ");
}
System.out.println();
}
}
private static int[][] getCombinations(int num, int outOf)
{
int possibilities = get_nCr(outOf, num);
int[][] combinations = new int[possibilities][num];
int arrayPointer = 0;
int[] counter = new int[num];
for (int i = 0; i < num; i++)
{
counter[i] = i;
}
breakLoop: while (true)
{
// Initializing part
for (int i = 1; i < num; i++)
{
if (counter[i] >= outOf - (num - 1 - i))
counter[i] = counter[i - 1] + 1;
}
// Testing part
for (int i = 0; i < num; i++)
{
if (counter[i] < outOf)
{
continue;
} else
{
break breakLoop;
}
}
// Innermost part
combinations[arrayPointer] = counter.clone();
arrayPointer++;
// Incrementing part
counter[num - 1]++;
for (int i = num - 1; i >= 1; i--)
{
if (counter[i] >= outOf - (num - 1 - i))
counter[i - 1]++;
}
}
return combinations;
}
private static int get_nCr(int n, int r)
{
if(r > n)
{
throw new ArithmeticException("r is greater then n");
}
long numerator = 1;
long denominator = 1;
for (int i = n; i >= r + 1; i--)
{
numerator *= i;
}
for (int i = 2; i <= n - r; i++)
{
denominator *= i;
}
return (int) (numerator / denominator);
}
}
这是我对javascript的贡献(没有递归)
set = ["q0", "q1", "q2", "q3"]
collector = []
function comb(num) {
results = []
one_comb = []
for (i = set.length - 1; i >= 0; --i) {
tmp = Math.pow(2, i)
quotient = parseInt(num / tmp)
results.push(quotient)
num = num % tmp
}
k = 0
for (i = 0; i < results.length; ++i)
if (results[i]) {
++k
one_comb.push(set[i])
}
if (collector[k] == undefined)
collector[k] = []
collector[k].push(one_comb)
}
sum = 0
for (i = 0; i < set.length; ++i)
sum += Math.pow(2, i)
for (ii = sum; ii > 0; --ii)
comb(ii)
cnt = 0
for (i = 1; i < collector.length; ++i) {
n = 0
for (j = 0; j < collector[i].length; ++j)
document.write(++cnt, " - " + (++n) + " - ", collector[i][j], "<br>")
document.write("<hr>")
}
这里你有一个用c#编写的该算法的惰性评估版本:
static bool nextCombination(int[] num, int n, int k)
{
bool finished, changed;
changed = finished = false;
if (k > 0)
{
for (int i = k - 1; !finished && !changed; i--)
{
if (num[i] < (n - 1) - (k - 1) + i)
{
num[i]++;
if (i < k - 1)
{
for (int j = i + 1; j < k; j++)
{
num[j] = num[j - 1] + 1;
}
}
changed = true;
}
finished = (i == 0);
}
}
return changed;
}
static IEnumerable Combinations<T>(IEnumerable<T> elements, int k)
{
T[] elem = elements.ToArray();
int size = elem.Length;
if (k <= size)
{
int[] numbers = new int[k];
for (int i = 0; i < k; i++)
{
numbers[i] = i;
}
do
{
yield return numbers.Select(n => elem[n]);
}
while (nextCombination(numbers, size, k));
}
}
及测试部分:
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int k = 3;
var t = new[] { "dog", "cat", "mouse", "zebra"};
foreach (IEnumerable<string> i in Combinations(t, k))
{
Console.WriteLine(string.Join(",", i));
}
}
希望这对你有帮助!
另一种版本，迫使所有前k个组合首先出现，然后是所有前k+1个组合，然后是所有前k+2个组合，等等。这意味着如果你对数组进行排序，最重要的在最上面，它会把它们逐渐扩展到下一个——只有在必须这样做的时候。
private static bool NextCombinationFirstsAlwaysFirst(int[] num, int n, int k)
{
if (k > 1 && NextCombinationFirstsAlwaysFirst(num, num[k - 1], k - 1))
return true;
if (num[k - 1] + 1 == n)
return false;
++num[k - 1];
for (int i = 0; i < k - 1; ++i)
num[i] = i;
return true;
}
例如，如果你在k=3, n=5上运行第一个方法("nextCombination")，你会得到:
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
但如果你跑
int[] nums = new int[k];
for (int i = 0; i < k; ++i)
nums[i] = i;
do
{
Console.WriteLine(string.Join(" ", nums));
}
while (NextCombinationFirstsAlwaysFirst(nums, n, k));
你会得到这个(为了清晰起见，我添加了空行):
0 1 2
0 1 3
0 2 3
1 2 3
0 1 4
0 2 4
1 2 4
0 3 4
1 3 4
2 3 4
它只在必须添加时才添加“4”，而且在添加“4”之后，它只在必须添加时再添加“3”(在执行01、02、12之后)。
