I have a list of parameters with possible values :
// Definition of a parameter
public class prmMatrix
{
public string Name { get; set; }
public List<string> PossibleValues { get; set; }
public prmMatrix(string name, List<string> values)
{
Name = name;
PossibleValues = values;
}
}
//[...]
// List of params
List<prmMatrix> lstParams = new List<prmMatrix>();
lstParams.Add(new prmMatrix("Option A", new List<string>() { "Yes", "No" }));
lstParams.Add(new prmMatrix("Option B", new List<string>() { "Positive", "Negative" }));
I would like to have all the combinations of parameters possible, ex.:
[Option A:Yes][Option B:Positive]
[Option A:Yes][Option B:Negative]
[Option A:No][Option B:Positive]
[Option A:No][Option B:Negative]
What's the best way in C# ?
This is pretty easy with recursion:
void ImplCombinations(List<prmMatrix> plist, string built, int depth, List<string> results)
{
if (depth >= plist.Count()) {
results.Add(built);
return;
}
prmMatrix next = plist[depth];
built += "[" + next.Name + ":";
foreach (var option in next.PossibleValues)
ImplCombinations(plist, built + option + "]", depth + 1, results);
}
List<string> GetCombinations(List<prmMatrix> plist)
{
List<string> results = new List<string>();
ImplCombinations(plist, "", 0, results);
return results;
}
