> Subject: [R] Automated generation of combinations
>
> Hello,
>
> I'd like to generate automatically all the possible combinations of a set of
> 8 variables (there are 535, too many to do it by hand). For example:
>
> input: varA, varB, varC
> output: varA+varB+varC
> varA+varB
> varA+varC
> varB+varC
> varA
> varB
> varC
> Is there any function that produces this option?
>
> Thank you
