def recur(tree, pos): if not tree: return [] else: return [[tree[0][pos]] + recur(tree[1:], pos)] + \ [[tree[0][pos]] + recur(tree[1:], pos+1)] i have a list with [[1],[2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9,10]] it i a pyramid so first is 1 then 23 then 456 thrn 78910 from one can go to 2 or 3. from 2 to 4or5, from 3 to 5 or 6. i want to generate every path and compute the cost. But I can't get the recursion right. It generates all the paths kind of but not in a matter i want to. also having to return after each other doesnt do anything right? like so: return [[tree[0][pos]] + recur(tree[1:], pos)] return [[tree[0][pos]] + recur(tree[1:], pos+1)] -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
