Comment (by ncohen):
Hello Nicolas,
I reported the following problems:
- From the doumentation: infinite set, no warning:
{{{
sage: for x in IntegerListsLex(NonNegativeIntegers(),length=1):
....: pass
}}}
- Non ordered output:
{{{
sage: IntegerListsLex([1,2],length=3).list()
[[1, 0, 0],
[0, 1, 0],
[0, 0, 1],
[2, 0, 0],
[1, 1, 0],
[1, 0, 1],
[0, 2, 0],
[0, 1, 1],
[0, 0, 2]]
}}}

I consider this example to break what the class promises (by being called
`IntegerListsLex`): its output is not sorted lexicograpically.
Now, I agree that this is hard to fix inside of the class. Thus instead of
claiming that it is not a bug by adding a line of documentation (which is
why
you are rewriting the class today) please consider deprecating it.
Updating the
code that calls it should not be a problem, as it can call
`DisjointUnionEnumeratedSets` directly.
