If you can get by with the performance of pure Python, a solution is right in the documentation for 2.6: ### def product(*args, **kwds): # product('ABCD', 'xy') --> Ax Ay Bx By Cx Cy Dx Dy # product(range(2), repeat=3) --> 000 001 010 011 100 101 110 111 pools = map(tuple, args) * kwds.get('repeat', 1) result = [[]] for pool in pools: result = [x+[y] for x in result for y in pool] for prod in result: yield tuple(prod) ### The docs for itertools are full of these definitions (for 2.6 functions) that can be used as recipes (if you don't have 2.6).
