Challenge #25: Creating Merchant Combos

[agulati]

Follow simple logic: the combinations should not repeat. We are calculating combinations and not permutations. For each user ID, the distinct combinations are NC2 (combinations of 2). Note: consider NULL also as one entity.

I have provided the most fundamental solution for this problem.
