I have an ArrayList[] myList and I am trying to create a list of all the permutations of the values in the arrays.
EXAMPLE: (all values are strings)
One of the problems I encountred when I was doing this for a very large amount of codes was that with the example brian was given I actually run out of memory. To solve this I used following code.
static void foo(string s, List x, int a)
{
if (a == x.Count)
{
// output here
Console.WriteLine(s);
}
else
{
foreach (object y in x[a])
{
foo(s + y.ToString(), x, a + 1);
}
}
}
static void Main(string[] args)
{
List a = new List();
a.Add(new string[0]);
a.Add(new string[0]);
a.Add(new string[0]);
a[0] = new string[] { "T", "Z" };
a[1] = new string[] { "N", "Z" };
a[2] = new string[] { "3", "2", "Z" };
foo("", a, 0);
Console.Read();
}
