Hi guys,

I just wanted to give an update on this: I just released my own code that does this to PyPI: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/combi


Thanks,
Ram.

I really like this and hope that it eventually makes it into the stdlib.  It's also a good argument for your other suggestion whereby some of the itertools to return Iterables rather than Iterators like range does.

I'm probably going to implement it in my python_toolbox package. I already implemented 30% and it's really cool. It's at the point where I doubt that I want it in the stdlib because I've gotten so much awesome functionality into it and I'd hate to (a) have 80% of it stripped and (b) have the class names changed to be non-Pythonic :)

At the least, this (a function for getting a specific permutation by
lexicographical-order index) could make a nice cookbook recipe.
