基于java解决方案的短php算法返回k元素从n(二项式系数)的所有组合:

$array = array(1,2,3,4,5);

$array_result = NULL;

$array_general = NULL;

function combinations($array, $len, $start_position, $result_array, $result_len, &$general_array)
{
    if($len == 0)
    {
        $general_array[] = $result_array;
        return;
    }

    for ($i = $start_position; $i <= count($array) - $len; $i++)
    {
        $result_array[$result_len - $len] = $array[$i];
        combinations($array, $len-1, $i+1, $result_array, $result_len, $general_array);
    }
} 

combinations($array, 3, 0, $array_result, 3, $array_general);

echo "<pre>";
print_r($array_general);
echo "</pre>";

相同的解决方案，但在javascript:

var newArray = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
var arrayResult = [];
var arrayGeneral = [];

function combinations(newArray, len, startPosition, resultArray, resultLen, arrayGeneral) {
    if(len === 0) {
        var tempArray = [];
        resultArray.forEach(value => tempArray.push(value));
        arrayGeneral.push(tempArray);
        return;
    }
    for (var i = startPosition; i <= newArray.length - len; i++) {
        resultArray[resultLen - len] = newArray[i];
        combinations(newArray, len-1, i+1, resultArray, resultLen, arrayGeneral);
    }
} 

combinations(newArray, 3, 0, arrayResult, 3, arrayGeneral);

console.log(arrayGeneral);

短快C实现

#include <stdio.h>

void main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
  const int n = 6; /* The size of the set; for {1, 2, 3, 4} it's 4 */
  const int p = 4; /* The size of the subsets; for {1, 2}, {1, 3}, ... it's 2 */
  int comb[40] = {0}; /* comb[i] is the index of the i-th element in the combination */

  int i = 0;
  for (int j = 0; j <= n; j++) comb[j] = 0;
  while (i >= 0) {
    if (comb[i] < n + i - p + 1) {
       comb[i]++;
       if (i == p - 1) { for (int j = 0; j < p; j++) printf("%d ", comb[j]); printf("\n"); }
       else            { comb[++i] = comb[i - 1]; }
    } else i--; }
}

要查看它有多快，请使用这段代码并测试它

#include <time.h>
#include <stdio.h>

void main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
  const int n = 32; /* The size of the set; for {1, 2, 3, 4} it's 4 */
  const int p = 16; /* The size of the subsets; for {1, 2}, {1, 3}, ... it's 2 */
  int comb[40] = {0}; /* comb[i] is the index of the i-th element in the combination */

  int c = 0; int i = 0;
  for (int j = 0; j <= n; j++) comb[j] = 0;
  while (i >= 0) {
    if (comb[i] < n + i - p + 1) {
       comb[i]++;
       /* if (i == p - 1) { for (int j = 0; j < p; j++) printf("%d ", comb[j]); printf("\n"); } */
       if (i == p - 1) c++;
       else            { comb[++i] = comb[i - 1]; }
    } else i--; }
  printf("%d!%d == %d combination(s) in %15.3f second(s)\n ", p, n, c, clock()/1000.0);
}

使用cmd.exe (windows)测试:

Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
(C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.

c:\Program Files\lcc\projects>combination
16!32 == 601080390 combination(s) in          5.781 second(s)

c:\Program Files\lcc\projects>

祝你有愉快的一天。

这个答案怎么样……这将打印所有长度为3的组合…它可以推广到任何长度… 工作代码…

#include<iostream>
#include<string>
using namespace std;

void combination(string a,string dest){
int l = dest.length();
if(a.empty() && l  == 3 ){
 cout<<dest<<endl;}
else{
  if(!a.empty() && dest.length() < 3 ){
     combination(a.substr(1,a.length()),dest+a[0]);}
  if(!a.empty() && dest.length() <= 3 ){
      combination(a.substr(1,a.length()),dest);}
 }

 }

 int main(){
 string demo("abcd");
 combination(demo,"");
 return 0;
 }

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()"> &gt;= k:<input id="kinp" oninput="test()"> &gt;= 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。

《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:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

void visit(int* c, int t) 
{
  // for (int j = 1; j <= t; j++)
  for (int j = t; j > 0; j--)
    printf("%d ", c[j]);
  printf("\n");
}

int* initialize(int n, int t) 
{
  // c[0] not used
  int *c = (int*) malloc((t + 3) * sizeof(int));

  for (int j = 1; j <= t; j++)
    c[j] = j - 1;
  c[t+1] = n;
  c[t+2] = 0;
  return c;
}

void comb(int n, int t) 
{
  int *c = initialize(n, t);
  int j;

  for (;;) {
    visit(c, t);
    j = 1;
    while (c[j]+1 == c[j+1]) {
      c[j] = j - 1;
      ++j;
    }
    if (j > t) 
      return;
    ++c[j];
  }
  free(c);
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  comb(5, 3);
  return 0;
}

简短的python代码，产生索引位置

def yield_combos(n,k):
    # n is set size, k is combo size

    i = 0
    a = [0]*k

    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
