Given the list of letters [“A”, “B”, “C” …] what would be the most elegant way to generate all possible permutations?
Well from old erlang code translated to Elixir, the all-generic:
def permutations([]), do: [[]]
def permutations(list), do: for elem <- list, rest <- permutations(list--[elem]), do: [elem|rest]
