This comes up on c.l.p every month or two. Folks offer their own solutions optimized for speed, memory, or golfed for char length. I'll throw in my same two bits as always, sprat:~# python Python 2.4.1 (#2, Mar 30 2005, 21:51:10) [GCC 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-8ubuntu2)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import probstat >>> c = probstat.Cartesian([[1,2], [3,4], [5,6]]) >>> list(c) [[1, 3, 5], [2, 3, 5], [1, 4, 5], [2, 4, 5], [1, 3, 6], [2, 3, 6], [1, 4, 6], [2, 4, 6]] >>> c = probstat.Cartesian([[(1,1),(2,2)], [(3,3),(4,4)], [(5,5),(6,6)]]) >>> list(c) [[(1, 1), (3, 3), (5, 5)], [(2, 2), (3, 3), (5, 5)], [(1, 1), (4, 4), (5, 5)], [(2, 2), (4, 4), (5, 5)], [(1, 1), (3, 3), (6, 6)], [(2, 2), (3, 3), (6, 6)], [(1, 1), (4, 4), (6, 6)], [(2, 2), (4, 4), (6, 6)]] The signature is slightly different (list of lists) but otherwise does what you want.
