algorithm - All Array Combination in JavaScript - Stack Overflow

programmeradmin6浏览0评论

Need all possible binations of an array including the reverse of a bination too.

Eg:

var b = ['a1','b1','a','b'];

Need binations as:

a1,b1,a,b
a1b1,a1a,a1b, b1a1,b1a,b1b, ......,
a1b1a,a1b1b,a1ab1,a1bb1,........,
a1b1ab,a1b1ba.....bab1a1

All 64 binations (if array has 4 elements). I found solution in java using ArrayList and Collection API, but right now I need a pure JavaScript ES5 solution.

I tried the following, but it only provides lesser binations.

function getCombinations(chars) {
    var result = [];
    var f = function (prefix, chars) {
        for (var i = 0; i < chars.length; i++) {
            result.push(prefix + chars[i]);
            f(prefix + chars[i], chars.slice(i + 1));
        }
    }
    f('', chars);
    return result;
}

  • Did you check this already? stackoverflow./questions/4331092/… How does it happen that you expect 64 values? shouldn't it be 256? – briosheje Commented Jun 18, 2019 at 12:34
  • I had already gone through the above link and it mainly deals with multiple arrays. – Akshay Rathnavas Commented Jun 18, 2019 at 12:50
  • @Bergi But this current question also includes different kinds of permutations. – nice_dev Commented Jun 18, 2019 at 14:31
  • 2 @Bergi the question you marked is also not a duplicate since it doesn't include all permutations of the binations. (I also have a meta warning about moderators unilaterally marking duplicates they have answered themselves.) – גלעד ברקן Commented Jun 18, 2019 at 14:38
  • 1 @vivek_23 You might be right - the desired results here contain both a1b1 and b1a1, also a1b1ba and bab1a1 which are permutations. Others seem to be missing though. – Bergi Commented Jun 18, 2019 at 14:45

Reset to default 5

Let's put your request into words: for each starting element, append all permutations of all binations of the rest of the elements.

function f(A, b=[], result=[b]){
  return A.reduce((acc, a, i) => acc.concat(f(A.slice(0,i).concat(A.slice(i+1)), b.concat(a))), result);
}

console.log(JSON.stringify(f(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'])));

a somewhat simple recursion will deal with this issue. Check it out:

function getCombinations(chars) {
  let binations = [];
  chars.forEach((char, i) => {
    let word = '';
    buildWord(word + char, [i], chars, binations)
  });
  return binations;
}

function buildWord(word, usedIndexes, chars, binations) {
  binations.push(word);
  chars.forEach((char, i) => {
    if (usedIndexes.indexOf(i) === -1) {
      let newUsedIndexesArray = Array.from(usedIndexes);
      newUsedIndexesArray.push(i);
      buildWord(word + char, newUsedIndexesArray, chars, binations)
    }
  });
}

console.log('Total: ' + getCombinations(['a1', 'b1', 'a', 'b']).length)
console.log(getCombinations(['a1', 'b1', 'a', 'b']))

Below is an iterative approach. We go from permutation length of 1 till length(no. of characters in the given chars) and generate all possible binations for each length. We maintain a set to avoid duplicates and isValidPermutation() check to see whether a bination is possible from given set of chars to avoid invalid binations.

function getCombinations(chars) {
  if (chars === undefined || chars === null || chars.length === 0) return [];
  var final_result = [];
  var temp_result_1 = chars.slice();
  var set = {};
  /* for initial set of elements */
  for (var i = 0; i < temp_result_1.length; ++i) {
    if (set[temp_result_1[i]] === undefined) {
      set[temp_result_1[i]] = true;
      final_result.push(temp_result_1[i]);
    }
  }

  /* go from 2 to length(since length 1 is captured above) to get all permutations of binations */
  for (var len = 2; len <= chars.length; ++len) {
    var temp_result_2 = [];
    for (var i = 0; i < chars.length; ++i) {
      for (var j = 0; j < temp_result_1.length; ++j) {
        var current_permutation = chars[i] + "," + temp_result_1[j];
        if (set[current_permutation] === undefined && isValidPermutation(current_permutation, chars)) {
          temp_result_2.push(current_permutation);
          set[current_permutation] = true;
        }
      }
    }
    temp_result_1 = temp_result_2;
    final_result = final_result.concat(temp_result_1);
  }

  return final_result.map((each) => each.split(",").join(""));
}
/* to check if actually a bination is true and possible from current set of chars */
function isValidPermutation(current_permutation, chars) {
  var hash = {};
  current_permutation = current_permutation.split(",");
  for (var i = 0; i < chars.length; ++i) {
    if (hash[chars[i]] === undefined) hash[chars[i]] = 0;
    hash[chars[i]]++;
  }

  for (var i = 0; i < current_permutation.length; ++i) {
    hash[current_permutation[i]]--;
    if (hash[current_permutation[i]] < 0) return false;
  }

  return true;
}

var b = ['a1', 'b1', 'a', 'b'];
console.log(getCombinations(b));

Since you need a ECMAScript 5 solution, you change the last line

return final_result.map((each) => each.split(",").join(""));

to

 for(var i=0;i<final_result.length;++i){
      final_result[i] = final_result[i].split(",").join("");
  }

  return final_result;
