Challenge #231: What a Combo!

This week's challenge was submitted by @Kenda  - Thanks for your submission!

Mathematicians and statisticians often work with permutations and combinations. In this challenge, we will focus on the latter. You are given 15 unique variables. The goal is to create a list of each of the combinations containing 3 variables (that is, 15C3). Remember, with combinations, order does not matter and the same variable cannot show up more than once in a given combination.

Since @Kenda is vertical user, this week's challenge is also a vertical workflow!

Fun challenge. Knew combinations for a while, but this is the first i am implementing.

Thank you for this challenge @Kenda 

got agree with @johnemery . Suddenly working with vertical flow is not easy.

PS: I started with vertical flow eventually moved to horizontal orientation.

I wonder whether any other way of optimizer tool exist for this.

Cheers and Happy Analyzing 🙂

Thanks @Kenda for the fun challenge!

While I respect the vertical canvas orientation, I switched my canvas to horizontal to fit my annotation style:

Here is my inefficient answer!

I tried to make it "dynamic" so that it could be turned into a macro easily. For small datasets like this, I like holding info in comma separated strings. I did that A LOT in the AdventOfCode AlteryxOfCode challenges last December.

Thank you @Kenda! Not yet a vertical convert, but will try it from time to time.
