I need to generate all possible deck combinations given two different lists as input.
The Input: List 1 has Card names listed inside it. List 2 has Maximum Quantities for each Card name. For example: List1[0] would be: "Aether Vial" List2[0] would be: "4" List1[1] would be: "Mountain" List2[1] would be: "10" List1[2] would be: "Gempalm Incinerator" List2[2] would be: "3" etc. A deck is 60 cards total (no more, no less). I need to loop over these lists to generate all possible combinations of 60 card decks which use up to the maximum quantity for each card. So, from the example, I need to generate decks with '1' Aether Vial' and 59 other cards in all possible combinations (still within the maximum cap for each card), and then I'd need to generate decks with '2' Aether Vial' and 58 other cards in all possible combinations It is vital that I create all combinations and that the maximum quantities are never breached. I am hoping that the each deck could be output as two lists: ListA = ['Cardname1', 'Cardname2', ...] ListB = ['1', '2', ...] These lists will have exactly 60 members. If you have an idea of how to do this, please share it! =) I would be most appreciative. I'll be testing all methods for speed because I have very large amount of computing to do.
