Name Math::Subsets::List - Generate all the subsets of a list. Synopsis use Math::Subsets::List; subsets {say "@_"} qw(a b c); # # a # b # c # a b # a c # b c # a b c Description Generate all the subsets of a list and process them using the standard Perl metaphor. "subsets()" returns the number of subsets. Please note that this includes the empty set as it is a subset of all sets. Please note that the order in which the subsets are generated is not guaranteed, so please do not rely on it. "subsets()" is easy to use and fast. It is written in 100% Pure Perl. Export The "subsets()" function is exported. Installation Standard Module::Build process for building and installing modules: perl Build.PL ./Build ./Build test ./Build install Or, if you're on a platform (like DOS or Windows) that doesn't require the "./" notation, you can do this: perl Build.PL Build Build test Build install Author PhilipRBrenan@appaapps.com http://www.appaapps.com Acknowledgments With lots of help and advice from Philip Rumpff to who I am most grateful.
