<section id='description'>
|
|
Task:
|
|
<p>Given non-negative integers <big> m </big> and <big> n</big>, generate all size <big> m </big> <a href="http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Combination.html" title="link: http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Combination.html">combinations</a> of the integers from <big> 0</big> (zero) to <big> n-1 </big> in sorted order (each combination is sorted and the entire table is sorted).</p>
|
|
Example:
|
|
<p><big>3</big> comb <big> 5 </big>is:</p>
