Yes, that's helpful. I think my use-case was probably closer to the
selections-concepts as I was calling permutations right after. If the
combinations function is order preserving then of course sets don't need to
be covered. Thanks for the help!
I guess if nobody has run into distinct-issues w
I think this could be corrected by calling seq on the incoming coll (on the
last line of the definition) and that would be in line with the rest of the
seq functions in "seq"-ing their arg.
This is kind of a degenerate case of course - sets are always distinct so
(distinct ) should be the same
Looking at the source for distinct, the reason it fails is because it tries
to destructure the set as a seq, and sets can't be destructured in this way.
A lot of people think that (let [[f & r] coll] ...) is the same as (let [f
(first coll), r (rest coll)]...), but they are not the same, because f
Interesting that set doesn't implement distinct. It should be a pretty straight
forward implementation.

Thanks, this helps!
Generally, is there any reason why combinations should not work on sets? I
may have tunnel vision here as they are everywhere in the systems I build.

The input should be a sequence not a set, so call seq on the input before
passing it to this function.
Sorry if that was unclear from the docs. (For some inputs, it is more
forgiving, but when you call combinations with n=1, it calls distinct on
the set, and clojure.core's implementation of disti
I am just using the math combinatorics library and spent some time
debugging until I found out that combinations does not accept n=1. Is this
intentional?
