Tuples
Tuples
[
list
,
n
]
generates a list of all possible
n
-tuples of elements from
list
.
Tuples
[{
list
1
,
list
2
,
...
}]
generates a list of all possible tuples whose
i
element is from
list
i
.
MORE INFORMATION
The elements of
list
are treated as distinct, so that
Tuples
[
list
,
n
]
for a list of length
k
gives output of length
k
n
.
The order of elements in
Tuples
[
list
,
n
]
is based on the order of elements in
list
, so that
Tuples
[{
a
1
,
...
,
a
k
},
n
]
gives
.
Tuples
[
list
, {
n
1
,
n
2
,
...
}]
generates a list of all possible
arrays of elements in
list
.
The object
list
need not have head
List
. The head at each level in the arrays generated by
Tuples
will be the same as the head of
list
.

Basic Examples
(3)
All possible 3-tuples of
0
and
1
:
In[1]:=
Out[1]=
The first element given is always picked first:
In[1]:=
Out[1]=
All ways of picking one element from each list:
In[1]:=
Out[1]=
