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>")
}   

另一个具有组合索引惰性生成的c#版本。这个版本维护了一个索引数组来定义所有值列表和当前组合值之间的映射，即在整个运行时不断使用O(k)额外的空间。该代码在O(k)时间内生成单个组合，包括第一个组合。

public static IEnumerable<T[]> Combinations<T>(this T[] values, int k)
{
    if (k < 0 || values.Length < k)
        yield break; // invalid parameters, no combinations possible

    // generate the initial combination indices
    var combIndices = new int[k];
    for (var i = 0; i < k; i++)
    {
        combIndices[i] = i;
    }

    while (true)
    {
        // return next combination
        var combination = new T[k];
        for (var i = 0; i < k; i++)
        {
            combination[i] = values[combIndices[i]];
        }
        yield return combination;

        // find first index to update
        var indexToUpdate = k - 1;
        while (indexToUpdate >= 0 && combIndices[indexToUpdate] >= values.Length - k + indexToUpdate)
        {
            indexToUpdate--;
        }

        if (indexToUpdate < 0)
            yield break; // done

        // update combination indices
        for (var combIndex = combIndices[indexToUpdate] + 1; indexToUpdate < k; indexToUpdate++, combIndex++)
        {
            combIndices[indexToUpdate] = combIndex;
        }
    }
}

测试代码:

foreach (var combination in new[] {'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e'}.Combinations(3))
{
    System.Console.WriteLine(String.Join(" ", combination));
}

输出:

a b c
a b d
a b e
a c d
a c e
a d e
b c d
b c e
b d e
c d e

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
...

用代码写出来是这样的

void print_combinations(const char *string)
{
    int i, j, k;
    int len = strlen(string);

    for (i = 0; i < len - 2; i++)
    {
        for (j = i + 1; j < len - 1; j++)
        {
            for (k = j + 1; k < len; k++)
                printf("%c%c%c\n", string[i], string[j], string[k]);
        }
    }
}

PowerShell解决方案:

function Get-NChooseK
{
    <#
    .SYNOPSIS
    Returns all the possible combinations by choosing K items at a time from N possible items.

    .DESCRIPTION
    Returns all the possible combinations by choosing K items at a time from N possible items.
    The combinations returned do not consider the order of items as important i.e. 123 is considered to be the same combination as 231, etc.

    .PARAMETER ArrayN
    The array of items to choose from.

    .PARAMETER ChooseK
    The number of items to choose.

    .PARAMETER AllK
    Includes combinations for all lesser values of K above zero i.e. 1 to K.

    .PARAMETER Prefix
    String that will prefix each line of the output.

    .EXAMPLE
    PS C:\> Get-NChooseK -ArrayN '1','2','3' -ChooseK 3
    123

    .EXAMPLE
    PS C:\> Get-NChooseK -ArrayN '1','2','3' -ChooseK 3 -AllK
    1
    2
    3
    12
    13
    23
    123

    .EXAMPLE
    PS C:\> Get-NChooseK -ArrayN '1','2','3' -ChooseK 2 -Prefix 'Combo: '
    Combo: 12
    Combo: 13
    Combo: 23

最近在IronScripter网站上发布了一个类似于这个问题的挑战，在那里你可以找到我的链接和其他一些解决方案。

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！
