How to calculate possible combinations of elements of a vector in GAUSS

The GAUSS function combinate will return the indices of all possible combinations of a vector of length N taken K at a time. Each row of this function will contain the indices of a different combination. For example:

x = { 0.35, 1.2, 0.9, 4.7 };

//calculate the indices of all combinations
cmb = combinate(4, 2);
print cmb;

will return the indices:

1        2 
1        3 
1        4 
2        3 
2        4 
3        4 

Using these indices you can print out each of the combinations like this:

//loop through and print all combinations
for i(1, rows(cmb), 1);
	print x[cmb[i,.]];
endfor;

which will return the following output:

0.35 
1.20 

0.35 
0.90 

0.35 
4.70 

1.20 
0.90 

1.20 
4.70 

0.90 
4.70
