[issue5048] Extending itertools.combinations

Raymond Hettinger added the comment: Guido disallowed returning a len method on iterators. He expected bool(it) to be False. The recipes section of the itertools docs has code for combinations_with_replacement(). It was not included originally because it was unclear whether there was actually

[issue5048] Extending itertools.combinations

Ezio Melotti added the comment: It would also be nice to have a __len__ method on both permutations and combinations. len(permutations(sequence)) could return the number of permutations using the formulas (e.g. n! for permutations) without generating all the possible permutations (as opposed to
