View source for Cartesian product of two or more lists

{{task}}
;Task:
Show one or more idiomatic ways of generating the [[wp:Cartesian_product|Cartesian product]] of two arbitrary lists in your language.

Demonstrate that your function/method correctly returns:
::{1, 2} × {3, 4} = {(1, 3), (1, 4), (2, 3), (2, 4)}

and, in contrast:
::{3, 4} × {1, 2} = {(3, 1), (3, 2), (4, 1), (4, 2)}

Also demonstrate, using your function/method, that the product of an empty list with any other list is empty.
:: {1, 2} × {} = {}
:: {} × {1, 2} = {}

For extra credit, show or write a function returning the n-ary product of an arbitrary number of lists, each of arbitrary length. Your function might, for example, accept a single argument which is itself a list of lists, and return the n-ary product of those lists.

Use your [[wp:Cartesian_product#Finite_n-ary_product|n-ary Cartesian product]] function to show the following products:
:: {1776, 1789} × {7, 12} × {4, 14, 23} × {0, 1}
:: {1, 2, 3} × {30} × {500, 100}
:: {1, 2, 3} × {} × {500, 100}

APL has a built-in outer product operator: <code>X ∘.F Y</code> will get you an ⍴X-by-⍴Y
matrix containing every corresponding value of <code>x F y</code> for all x∊X, y∊Y.

The Cartesian product can therefore be expressed as <code>∘.,</code>, but as that would return
a matrix, and the task is asking for a list, you also need to ravel the result. 

<lang APL>cart ← ,∘.,</lang>

<pre>      1 2 cart 3 4
 1 3  1 4  2 3  2 4

      1 2 cart ⍬   ⍝ empty output

      ⍬ cart 1 2   ⍝ empty output again

</pre>

This can be reduced over a list of lists to generate the Cartesian product of an arbitrary
list of lists.

I'll leave the extra credit part for someone else. It's just going to amount to repeatedly finding Cartesian products and [[Flatten a list|flattening]] the result, so considerably less interesting than Cartesian products where the list items themselves can be lists.

This implementation is hard to extend to n-ary products but it is simple and works well for binary products of lists of any length.

=={{header|Fōrmulæ}}==

In [http://wiki.formulae.org/Cartesian_product_of_two_or_more_lists this] page you can see the solution of this task.

Fōrmulæ programs are not textual, visualization/edition of programs is done showing/manipulating structures but not text ([http://wiki.formulae.org/Editing_F%C5%8Drmul%C3%A6_expressions more info]). Moreover, there can be multiple visual representations of the same program. Even though it is possible to have textual representation &mdash;i.e. XML, JSON&mdash; they are intended for transportation effects more than visualization and edition.

The option to show Fōrmulæ programs and their results is showing images. Unfortunately images cannot be uploaded in Rosetta Code.

'''Extra credit 2'''

Code here is more compact, but with the cost of more garbage produced.  It produces the same result as cartN above.
<lang go>func cartN(a ...[]int) (c [][]int) {
    if len(a) == 0 {
        return [][]int{nil}
    }
    r := cartN(a[1:]...)
    for _, e := range a[0] {
        for _, p := range r {
            c = append(c, append([]int{e}, p...))
        }
    }
    return
}</lang>
'''Extra credit 3'''

This is a compact recursive version like Extra credit 2 but the result list is ordered differently.  This is still a correct result if you consider a cartesian product to be a set, which is an unordered collection.  Note that the set elements are still ordered lists.  A cartesian product is an unordered collection of ordered collections.  It draws attention though to the gloss of using list representations as sets.  Any of the functions here will accept duplicate elements in the input lists, and then produce duplicate elements in the result.
<lang go>func cartN(a ...[]int) (c [][]int) {
    if len(a) == 0 {
        return [][]int{nil}
    }
    last := len(a) - 1
    l := cartN(a[:last]...)
    for _, e := range a[last] {
        for _, p := range l {
            c = append(c, append(p, e))
        }
    }
    return
}</lang>

'''Solution:'''<br>
The following ''CartesianCategory'' class allows for modification of regular ''Iterable'' interface behavior, overloading ''Iterable'''s ''multiply'' (*) operator to perform a Cartesian Product when the second operand is also an ''Iterable''.
<lang groovy>class CartesianCategory {
    static Iterable multiply(Iterable a, Iterable b) {
        assert [a,b].every { it != null }
        def (m,n) = [a.size(),b.size()]
        (0..<(m*n)).inject([]) { prod, i -> prod << [a[i.intdiv(n)], b[i%n]].flatten() }
    }
}</lang>
'''Test:'''<br>
The ''mixin'' method call is necessary to make the multiply (*) operator work.
<lang groovy>Iterable.metaClass.mixin CartesianCategory

=={{header|Haskell}}==
Various routes can be taken to Cartesian products in Haskell.
For the product of two lists we could write:
<lang Haskell>cartProd :: [a] -> [b] -> [(a, b)]
cartProd xs ys =
  [ (x, y)
  | x <- xs 
  , y <- ys ]</lang>

more directly:
<lang Haskell>cartProd :: [a] -> [b] -> [(a, b)]
cartProd xs ys = xs >>= \x -> ys >>= \y -> [(x, y)]</lang>

applicatively:
<lang Haskell>cartProd :: [a] -> [b] -> [(a, b)]
cartProd xs ys = (,) <$> xs <*> ys</lang>

parsimoniously:
<lang Haskell>cartProd :: [a] -> [b] -> [(a, b)]
cartProd = (<*>) . fmap (,)</lang>

We might test any of these with:
<lang haskell>main :: IO ()
main =
  mapM_ print $
  uncurry cartProd <$>
  [([1, 2], [3, 4]), ([3, 4], [1, 2]), ([1, 2], []), ([], [1, 2])]</lang>
{{Out}}
<pre>[(1,3),(1,4),(2,3),(2,4)]
[(3,1),(3,2),(4,1),(4,2)]
[]
[]</pre>


For the n-ary Cartesian product of an arbitrary number of lists, we could apply the Prelude's standard '''sequence''' function to a list of lists,
<lang haskell>cartProdN :: [[a]] -> [[a]]
cartProdN = sequence

main :: IO ()
main = print $ cartProdN [[1, 2], [3, 4], [5, 6]]</lang>
{{Out}}
<pre>[[1,3,5],[1,3,6],[1,4,5],[1,4,6],[2,3,5],[2,3,6],[2,4,5],[2,4,6]]</pre>

or we could define ourselves an equivalent function over a list of lists in terms of a fold, for example as:
<lang haskell>cartProdN :: [[a]] -> [[a]]
cartProdN = foldr (\xs as -> xs >>= (<$> as) . (:)) [[]]</lang>
or, equivalently, as:
<lang haskell>cartProdN :: [[a]] -> [[a]]
cartProdN = foldr
    (\xs as ->
        [ x : a
        | x <- xs
        , a <- as ])
    [[]]</lang>
testing any of these with something like:
<lang haskell>main :: IO ()
main = do
  mapM_ print $ 
    cartProdN [[1776, 1789], [7,12], [4, 14, 23], [0,1]]
  putStrLn ""
  print $ cartProdN [[1,2,3], [30], [500, 100]]
  putStrLn ""
  print $ cartProdN [[1,2,3], [], [500, 100]]</lang>

    // Each member of a list of functions applied to each

=={{header|jq}}==

jq is stream-oriented and so we begin by defining a function that will emit a stream of the elements of the Cartesian product of two arrays:
<lang jq>
def products: .[0][] as $x | .[1][] as $y | [$x,$y];
</lang>

To generate an array of these arrays, one would in practice most likely simply write `[products]`, but to comply with the requirements of this article, we can define `product` as:
<lang jq>
def product: [products];
</lang>

For the sake of brevity, two illustrations should suffice:

    [ [1,2], [3,4] ] | products

produces the stream:
<pre>
 [1,3]
 [1,4]
 [2,3]
 [2,4]
</pre>

And
<lang jq>
[[1,2], []] | product
</lang>
produces:
<pre>
[]
</pre>

===n-way Cartesian Product===
Given an array of two or more arrays as input, `cartesians` as defined here produces a stream of the components of their Cartesian product:

<lang jq>
def cartesians:
  if length <= 2 then products
  else .[0][] as $x
  | (.[1:] | cartesians) as $y
  | [$x] + $y
  end;
</lang>

Again for brevity, in the following, we will just show the number of items in the Cartesian products:

    [ [1776, 1789], [7, 12], [4, 14, 23], [0, 1]] | [cartesians] | length
    # 24

    [[1, 2, 3], [30], [500, 100] ] | [cartesians] | length
    # 6

    [[1, 2, 3], [], [500, 100] ] | [cartesians] | length
    # 0

=== Using coroutines ===
I have not benchmarked this, but I believe that this should run faster than the functional implementation and also likely the imperative implementation, it has significantly fewer function calls per iteration, and only the stack changes during iteration (no garbage collection during iteration). On the other hand due to avoiding garbage collection, result is reused between returns, so mutating the returned result is unsafe.

It is possible that specialising descend by depth may yield a further improvement in performance, but it would only be able to eliminate the lookup of ''sets[depth]'' and the if test, because the reference to ''result[depth]'' is required; I doubt the increase in complexity would be worth the (potential) improvement in performance.
<lang lua>local function cartesian_product(sets)
  local result = {}
  local set_count = #sets
--[[ I believe that this should make the below go very slightly faster, because it doesn't need to lookup yield in coroutine each time it
     yields, though perhaps the compiler optimises the lookup away? ]]
  local yield = coroutine.yield 
  local function descend(depth)
    if depth == set_count then
      for k,v in pairs(sets[depth]) do
        result[depth] = v
        yield(result)
      end
    else
      for k,v in pairs(sets[depth]) do
        result[depth] = v

===Task: product of two lists===
To compute the product of two lists (Nim arrays or sequences), we use an iterator. Obtaining a sequence from an iterator is easily done using "toSeq" from the module “sequtils” of the standard library.

The procedure allows to mix sequences of different types, for instance integers and characters.

In order to display the result using mathematical formalism, we have created a special procedure “$$” for the sequences and have overloaded the procedure “$” for tuples.

<lang Nim>iterator product[T1, T2](a: openArray[T1]; b: openArray[T2]): tuple[a: T1, b: T2] =
  # Yield the element of the cartesian product of "a" and "b".
  # Yield tuples rather than arrays as it allows T1 and T2 to be different.
  
  for x in a:
    for y in b:
      yield (x, y)

===Extra credit: product of n list===

====Recursive procedure====
As iterators cannot be recursive, we have to use a procedure which returns the whole sequence. And as we don’t know the number of sequences, we use a “varargs”. So all the sequences must contain the same type of values, values which are returned as sequences and not tuples.

Note that there exists in the standard module “algorithm” a procedure which computes the product of sequences of a same type. It is not recursive and, so, likely more efficient that the following version.

<lang Nim>proc product[T](a: varargs[seq[T]]): seq[seq[T]] =
  ## Return the product of several sets (sequences).

  if a.len == 1:
    for x in a[0]:
      result.add(@[x])
  else:
    for x in a[0]:
      for s in product(a[1..^1]):
        result.add(x & s)

#———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

when isMainModule:

  import strformat
  
  let
    a = @[1, 2]
    b = @[3, 4]
    c = @[5, 6]
  echo &"{a} x {b} x {c} = {product(a, b, c)}"</lang>

{{out}}
<pre>@[1, 2] x @[3, 4] x @[5, 6] = @[@[1, 3, 5], @[1, 3, 6], @[1, 4, 5], @[1, 4, 6], @[2, 3, 5], @[2, 3, 6], @[2, 4, 5], @[2, 4, 6]]</pre>

====Using a macro====
Another way to compute the product consists to use a macro. It would be possible to create an iterator but it’s somewhat easier to produce the code to build the whole sequence. No recursion here: we generate nested loops, so the algorithm is the simplest possible.

With a macro, we are able to mix several value types: the “varrags” is no longer a problem as being used at compile time it may contain sequences of different types. And we are able to return tuples of n values instead of sequences of n values.

<lang Nim>import macros

macro product(args: varargs[typed]): untyped =
  ## Macro to generate the code to build the product of several sequences.

  let t = args[0].getType()
  if t.kind != nnkBracketExpr or t[0].kind != nnkSym or $t[0] != "seq":
    error("Arguments must be sequences", args)

  # Build the result type i.e. a tuple with "args.len" elements.
  # Fields are named "f0", "f1", etc.
  let tupleTyNode = newNimNode(nnkTupleTy)
  for idx, arg in args:
    let identDefsNode = newIdentDefs(ident('f' & $idx), arg.getType()[1])
    tupleTyNode.add(identDefsNode)

  # Build the nested for loops with counter "i0", "i1", etc.
  var stmtListNode = newStmtList()
  let loopsNode = nnkForStmt.newTree(ident("i0"), ident($args[0]), stmtListNode)
  var idx = 0
  for arg in args[1..^1]:
    inc idx
    let loopNode = nnkForStmt.newTree(ident('i' & $idx), ident($arg))
    stmtListNode.add(loopNode)
    stmtListNode = newStmtList()
    loopNode.add(stmtListNode)

  # Build the instruction "result.add(i1, i2,...)".
  let parNode = newPar()
  let addNode = newCall(newDotExpr(ident("result"), ident("add")), parNode)
  for i, arg in args:
    parNode.add(ident('i' & $i))
  stmtListNode.add(addNode)

  # Build the tree.
  result = nnkStmtListExpr.newTree(
             nnkVarSection.newTree(
               newIdentDefs(
                 ident("result"),

Implementation with a bit more tail-call optimization, introducing a helper function. The order of the result is changed but it should not be an issue for most uses.

cart_prod [1; 2; 3] [] ;;
(*- : ('a * int) list = [] *)</lang>

Extra credit function. Since in OCaml a function can return only one type, and because tuples of different arities are different types, this returns a list of lists rather than a list of tuples. Since lists are homogeneous this version is restricted to products over a ''single'' type, eg integers.

=== Better type ===

In the latter example, our function has this signature:
<lang ocaml>val product'' : 'a list list -> 'a list list = <fun></lang>
This lacks clarity as those two lists are not equivalent since one replaces a tuple. We can get a better signature by creating a tuple type:
<lang ocaml>type 'a tuple = 'a list

let rec product'' (l:'a list tuple) =
    (* We need to do the cross product of our current list and all the others
     * so we define a helper function for that *)

==== Glob ====
This being Perl, there's more than one way to do it. A quick demonstration of how <code>glob</code>, more typically used for filename wildcard expansion, can solve the task.
<lang perl>$tuples = [ map { [split /:/] } glob '{1,2,3}:{30}:{500,100}' ];

for $a (@$tuples) { printf "(%1d %2d %3d) ", @$a; }</lang>

==== Modules ====
A variety of modules can do this correctly for an arbitrary number of lists (each of independent length).  Arguably using modules is very idiomatic Perl.
<lang perl>use ntheory qw/forsetproduct/;
forsetproduct { say "@_" } [1,2,3],[qw/a b c/],[qw/@ $ !/];

use Set::Product qw/product/;
product { say "@_" } [1,2,3],[qw/a b c/],[qw/@ $ !/];

use Math::Cartesian::Product;
cartesian { say "@_" } [1,2,3],[qw/a b c/],[qw/@ $ !/];

use Algorithm::Loops qw/NestedLoops/;
NestedLoops([[1,2,3],[qw/a b c/],[qw/@ $ !/]], sub { say "@_"; });</lang>

===Using the 'Applicative' abstraction===

This task calls for alternative approaches to defining cartesian products, and one particularly compact alternative route to a native cartesian product (in a more mathematically reasoned idiom of programming) is through the Applicative abstraction (see [[wp:Applicative_functor|Applicative Functor]]), which is slightly more general than the possibly better known '''monad''' structure. Applicative functions are provided off-the-shelf by languages like Agda, Idris, Haskell and Scala, and can usefully be implemented in any language, including Python, which supports higher-order functions.

If we write ourselves a re-usable Python '''ap''' function for the case of lists (applicative functions for other 'data containers' can also be written – this one applies a list of functions to a list of values):

<lang python># ap (<*>) :: [(a -> b)] -> [a] -> [b]
def ap(fs):
    return lambda xs: foldl(
        lambda a: lambda f: a + foldl(
            lambda a: lambda x: a + [f(x)])([])(xs)
    )([])(fs)</lang>

then one simple use of it will be to define the cartesian product of two lists (of possibly different type) as:

<lang python>ap(map(Tuple, xs))</lang>

where Tuple is a constructor, and xs is bound to the first of two lists. The returned value is a function which can be applied to a second list.

For an nAry product, we can then use a '''fold''' (catamorphism) to lift the basic function over two lists ''cartesianProduct :: [a] -> [b] -> [(a, b)]'' to a function over a list of lists:

<lang python># nAryCartProd :: [[a], [b], [c] ...] -> [(a, b, c ...)]
def nAryCartProd(xxs):
    return foldl1(cartesianProduct)(
        xxs
    )</lang>

For example:

<lang python># Two lists -> list of tuples


# cartesianProduct :: [a] -> [b] -> [(a, b)]
def cartesianProduct(xs):
    return ap(map(Tuple, xs))


# List of lists -> list of tuples

# nAryCartProd :: [[a], [b], [c] ...] -> [(a, b, c ...)]
def nAryCartProd(xxs):
    return foldl1(cartesianProduct)(
        xxs
    )


# main :: IO ()
def main():
    # Product of lists of different types
    print (
        'Product of two lists of different types:'
    )
    print(
        cartesianProduct(['a', 'b', 'c'])(
            [1, 2]
        )
    )

    # TESTS OF PRODUCTS OF TWO LISTS

    print(
        '\nSpecified tests of products of two lists:'
    )
    print(
        cartesianProduct([1, 2])([3, 4]),
        ' <--> ',
        cartesianProduct([3, 4])([1, 2])
    )
    print (
        cartesianProduct([1, 2])([]),
        ' <--> ',
        cartesianProduct([])([1, 2])
    )

    # TESTS OF N-ARY CARTESIAN PRODUCTS

    print('\nSpecified tests of nAry products:')
    for xs in nAryCartProd([[1776, 1789], [7, 12], [4, 14, 23], [0, 1]]):
        print(xs)

    for xs in (
        map_(nAryCartProd)(
            [

In Sidef, the Cartesian product of an arbitrary number of arrays is built-in as ''Array.cartesian()'':
<lang ruby>cartesian([[1,2], [3,4], [5,6]]).say
cartesian([[1,2], [3,4], [5,6]], {|*arr| say arr })</lang>

Alternatively, a simple recursive implementation:
<lang ruby>func cartesian_product(*arr) {

    var c = []
    var r = []

    func {
        if (c.len < arr.len) {
            for item in (arr[c.len]) {
                c.push(item)
                __FUNC__()
                c.pop
            }
        }
        else {
            r.push([c...])
        }
    }()

    return r
}</lang>

=={{header|SQL}}==
If we create lists as tables with one column, cartesian product is easy.
<lang sql>-- set up list 1
create table L1 (value integer);
insert into L1 values (1);
insert into L1 values (2);
-- set up list 2
create table L2 (value integer);
insert into L2 values (3);
insert into L2 values (4);
-- get the product
select * from L1, L2;</lang>
{{out}}
<pre>     VALUE      VALUE
---------- ----------
         1          3
         1          4
         2          3
         2          4</pre>You should be able to be more explicit should get the same result:<lang sql>select * from L1 cross join L2;</lang>
Product with an empty list works as expected (using the tables created above):
<lang sql>delete from L2;
select * from L1, L2;</lang>
{{out}}
<pre>no rows selected</pre>
I don't think "extra credit" is meaningful here because cartesian product is so hard-baked into SQL, so here's just one of the extra credit examples (again using the tables created above):<lang sql>insert into L1 values (3);
insert into L2 values (30);
create table L3 (value integer);
insert into L3 values (500);
insert into L3 values (100);
-- product works the same for as many "lists" as you'd like
select * from L1, L2, L3;</lang>

=={{header|Stata}}==

In Stata, the command '''[https://www.stata.com/help.cgi?fillin fillin]''' may be used to expand a dataset with all combinations of a number of variables. Thus it's easy to compute a cartesian product.

<lang stata>. list

     +-------+
     | a   b |
     |-------|
  1. | 1   3 |
  2. | 2   4 |
     +-------+

. fillin a b
. list

     +-----------------+
     | a   b   _fillin |
     |-----------------|
  1. | 1   3         0 |
  2. | 1   4         1 |
  3. | 2   3         1 |
  4. | 2   4         0 |
     +-----------------+</lang>

The other way around:

<lang stata>. list

     +-------+
     | a   b |
     |-------|
  1. | 3   1 |
  2. | 4   2 |
     +-------+

. fillin a b
. list

     +-----------------+
     | a   b   _fillin |
     |-----------------|
  1. | 3   1         0 |
  2. | 3   2         1 |
  3. | 4   1         1 |
  4. | 4   2         0 |
     +-----------------+</lang>

Note, however, that this is not equivalent to a cartesian product when one of the variables is "empty" (that is, only contains missing values).

<lang stata>. list

     +-------+
     | a   b |
     |-------|
  1. | 1   . |
  2. | 2   . |
     +-------+

. fillin a b
. list

     +-----------------+
     | a   b   _fillin |
     |-----------------|
  1. | 1   .         0 |
  2. | 2   .         0 |
     +-----------------+</lang>

This command works also if the varaibles have different numbers of nonmissing elements. However, this requires additional code to remove the observations with missing values.

     +-----------+
     | a   b   c |
     |-----------|

=={{header|UNIX Shell}}==
The UNIX shells don't allow passing or returning arrays from functions (other than pass-by-name shenanigans), but as pointed out in the Perl entry, wildcard brace expansion (in bash, ksh, zsh) does a Cartesian product if there's more than one set of alternatives. It doesn't handle the empty-list case (an empty brace expansion item is treated as a single item that is equal to the empty string), but otherwise it works:

    $ printf '%s' "("{1,2},{3,4}")"; printf '\n'
    (1,3)(1,4)(2,3)(2,4)
    $ printf '%s' "("{3,4},{1,2}")"; printf '\n'

Cartesian product is build into iterators or can be done with nested 
loops.
