accidental duplication (Score:1)

by richardc (1662)

richardc wrote Algorithm::GenerateSequence [cpan.org] when he might have been satisfied with my Set::CrossProduct. [cpan.org]

Indeed, and if I'd have found it I would have been pleased to use it. Even as I wrote it I had this sneaking feeling [netthink.co.uk] that the wheel already existed, though I didn't think to look in the Set:: namespace. This probably reflects more on my not paying attention in maths class than to anything else.
Anyway, I'm glad you gained something from my version, sorry for the toe-trampling.

  No toe-trampling :) Perhaps we should add your interface to Set::CrossProduct. I had a situation today where an anonymous subroutine to iterate automatically would have been very nice. :)
