You could create an extension method like the following:
public static class EnumerableExtensions
{
public static IEnumerable<TValue []> Permutations<TKey, TValue>(this IEnumerable<TKey> keys, Func<TKey, IEnumerable<TValue>> selector)
{
var keyArray = keys.ToArray();
if (keyArray.Length < 1)
yield break;
TValue [] values = new TValue[keyArray.Length];
foreach (var array in Permutations(keyArray, 0, selector, values))
yield return array;
}
static IEnumerable<TValue []> Permutations<TKey, TValue>(TKey [] keys, int index, Func<TKey, IEnumerable<TValue>> selector, TValue [] values)
{
Debug.Assert(keys.Length == values.Length);
var key = keys[index];
foreach (var value in selector(key))
{
values[index] = value;
if (index < keys.Length - 1)
{
foreach (var array in Permutations(keys, index+1, selector, values))
yield return array;
}
else
{
yield return values.ToArray(); // Clone the array;
}
}
}
}
As an example, it could be used like:
public static void TestPermutations()
{
int [][] seqence = new int [][]
{
new int [] {1, 2, 3},
new int [] {101},
new int [] {201},
new int [] {301, 302, 303},
};
foreach (var array in seqence.Permutations(a => a))
{
Debug.WriteLine(array.Aggregate(new StringBuilder(), (sb, i) => { if (sb.Length > 0) sb.Append(","); sb.Append(i); return sb; }));
}
}
and produce the following output:
1,101,201,301
1,101,201,302
1,101,201,303
2,101,201,301
2,101,201,302
2,101,201,303
3,101,201,301
3,101,201,302
3,101,201,303
Is that what you want?
