combo


combo, a C++ code which ranks, unranks, enumerates, lists and randomly selects balanced sequences, cycles, graphs, Gray codes, subsets, partitions, permutations, restricted growth functions, Pruefer codes and trees.

The objects include:

Some of these sets of objects can be ordered in several different ways, and in some cases, a separate set of ranking, unranking, and successor routines are available for the various orderings (lexical, colexical, revolving door, Trotter-Johnson).

Kreher and Stinson provide C source-code for the routines, as well as other information, at their web site.
