Hi all, A few days back I implemented a bunch of combinatorial generation algorithms for rather specialized objects (necklaces, lyndon words, bell permutations). These were being reviewed by Chris Smith and he pointed out that such algorithms may be unnecessary and he also wanted to know the motivation for implementing them. I did not really have an answer because honestly I was doing it for the kicks. My only argument was that it was educative as these algorithms have been developed within the last decade and a graduate student studying combinatorics might find it useful. For now, I have not submitted the code I wrote for the more specialized objects because it is outside of the scope of my proposal and I am a bit behind on my Permutation groups implementation (which I believe is the real meat of my project). I would still like to know what the rest of you think about this issue. Regards Saptarshi Mandal
