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));
    }
}

下面的递归算法从有序集中选取所有k元素组合:

选择组合中的第一个元素I 将I与从大于I的元素集中递归选择的k-1个元素的组合组合。

对集合中的每一个i进行上述迭代。

为了避免重复，您必须选择比i大的其余元素。这样[3,5]将只被选中一次，即[3]与[5]结合，而不是两次(该条件消除了[5]+[3])。没有这个条件，你得到的是变化而不是组合。

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！

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))))

最近在IronScripter网站上有一个PowerShell挑战，需要一个n- choice -k的解决方案。我在那里发布了一个解决方案，但这里有一个更通用的版本。

AllK开关用于控制输出是长度为ChooseK的组合，还是长度为1到ChooseK的组合。 Prefix参数实际上是输出字符串的累加器，但其效果是为初始调用传递的值实际上会为每一行输出添加前缀。

function Get-NChooseK
{

    [CmdletBinding()]

    Param
    (

        [String[]]
        $ArrayN

    ,   [Int]
        $ChooseK

    ,   [Switch]
        $AllK

    ,   [String]
        $Prefix = ''

    )

    PROCESS
    {
        # Validate the inputs
        $ArrayN = $ArrayN | Sort-Object -Unique

        If ($ChooseK -gt $ArrayN.Length)
        {
            Write-Error "Can't choose $ChooseK items when only $($ArrayN.Length) are available." -ErrorAction Stop
        }

        # Control the output
        $firstK = If ($AllK) { 1 } Else { $ChooseK }

        # Get combinations
        $firstK..$ChooseK | ForEach-Object {

            $thisK = $_

            $ArrayN[0..($ArrayN.Length-($thisK--))] | ForEach-Object {
                If ($thisK -eq 0)
                {
                    Write-Output ($Prefix+$_)
                }
                Else
                {
                    Get-NChooseK -Array ($ArrayN[($ArrayN.IndexOf($_)+1)..($ArrayN.Length-1)]) -Choose $thisK -AllK:$false -Prefix ($Prefix+$_)
                }
            }

        }
    }

}

例如:

PS C:\>$ArrayN  = 'E','B','C','A','D'
PS C:\>$ChooseK = 3
PS C:\>Get-NChooseK -ArrayN $ArrayN -ChooseK $ChooseK
ABC
ABD
ABE
ACD
ACE
ADE
BCD
BCE
BDE
CDE

作为迭代器对象实现的MetaTrader MQL4非常快速的组合。

代码很容易理解。

我对很多算法进行了基准测试，这个算法真的非常快——大约比大多数next_combination()函数快3倍。

class CombinationsIterator { private: int input_array[]; // 1 2 3 4 5 int index_array[]; // i j k int m_elements; // N int m_indices; // K public: CombinationsIterator(int &src_data[], int k) { m_indices = k; m_elements = ArraySize(src_data); ArrayCopy(input_array, src_data); ArrayResize(index_array, m_indices); // create initial combination (0..k-1) for (int i = 0; i < m_indices; i++) { index_array[i] = i; } } // https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5076695 // bool next_combination(int &item[], int k, int N) bool advance() { int N = m_elements; for (int i = m_indices - 1; i >= 0; --i) { if (index_array[i] < --N) { ++index_array[i]; for (int j = i + 1; j < m_indices; ++j) { index_array[j] = index_array[j - 1] + 1; } return true; } } return false; } void getItems(int &items[]) { // fill items[] from input array for (int i = 0; i < m_indices; i++) { items[i] = input_array[index_array[i]]; } } };

测试上述迭代器类的驱动程序:

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+ //| | //+------------------------------------------------------------------+ // driver program to test above class #define N 5 #define K 3 void OnStart() { int myset[N] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; int items[K]; CombinationsIterator comboIt(myset, K); do { comboIt.getItems(items); printf("%s", ArrayToString(items)); } while (comboIt.advance()); }

输出: 1 2 3 1 2 4 1 2 5 1 3 4 1 3 5 1 4 5 2 3 4 2 3 5 2 4 5 3 4 5
