subset


subset, a Python code which enumerates, generates, randomizes, ranks and unranks combinatorial objects including combinations, compositions, Gray codes, index sets, partitions, permutations, polynomials, subsets, and Young tables. Backtracking routines are included to solve some combinatorial problems. Other routines handle continued fractions, Diophantine equations, and Pythagorean triples.

Combinatorial operations include the enumeration, generation, random selection, ranking and unranking of
