Algorithm


Problem Name: Python - itertools.combinations()

Problem Link: https://www.hackerrank.com/challenges/itertools-combinations/problem?isFullScreen=true

In this HackerRank Functions in PYTHON problem solution,

itertools.combinations(iterable, r)
This tool returns the

length subsequences of elements from the input iterable.

 

Combinations are emitted in lexicographic sorted order. So, if the input iterable is sorted, the combination tuples will be produced in sorted order.

 

Sample Code

 

>>> from itertools import combinations
>>> 
>>> print list(combinations('12345',2))
[('1', '2'), ('1', '3'), ('1', '4'), ('1', '5'), ('2', '3'), ('2', '4'), ('2', '5'), ('3', '4'), ('3', '5'), ('4', '5')]
>>> 
>>> A = [1,1,3,3,3]
>>> print list(combinations(A,4))
[(1, 1, 3, 3), (1, 1, 3, 3), (1, 1, 3, 3), (1, 3, 3, 3), (1, 3, 3, 3)]

 


 

Task

You are given a string S .

our task is to print all possible combinations, up to size k, of the string in lexicographic sorted order.

Input Format

A single line containing the string S and integer value k separated by a space.

Constraints

0 <= k <= len(S)

The string contains only UPPERCASE characters.

Output Format

Print the different combinations of string S on separate lines.

Sample Input

HACK 2

Sample Output

A
C
H
K
AC
AH
AK
CH
CK
HK

for i in range(1, int(ls[1])+1):
    ls2 = []
    ls2 = list(map("".join, combinations(ls[0], i)))
    for elem in ls2:
        ls2[ls2.index(elem)] = "".join(sorted(elem))
    ls2.sort()
    for char in ls2:
        print(char)
