StringTools[Generate] - generate all strings of a given length on some alphabet
Calling Sequence
Generate( len, supp )
Parameters
len
-
non-negative integer; length of the strings to generate
supp
string; support string specifying the alphabet to use
Description
The Generate(len, supp) command generates a list consisting of all strings whose length is equal to len formed from the characters in the alphabet specified by the string supp. The string supp specifies the alphabet consisting of its distinct characters.
Note that the number length( supp )^len of strings generated grows exponentially. Thus, it is usually practical to specify modest size arguments when calling this procedure. In particular, if the alphabet has at least two characters, then the maximum value for the len parameter is 25.
Examples
This is not possible.
Error, (in StringTools:-Generate) there are too many strings of length 100 on an alphabet of 5 characters
