List of permutations and combinations of a list

Under Consideration

Hi!

It would be nice to have a fast factory command to compute all k-combinations of a set S with size n. The BinomialCoefficient[n, k] computes the number of such k-combinations but, indeed, I would like to list all of them. For instance,

CombinationList[{1, 2, 3, 4, 5}, 4] would return { {2, 3, 4, 5}, {1, 3, 4, 5}, {1, 2, 4, 5}, {1, 2, 3, 5}, {1, 2, 3, 4}}.

Thanks, Humberto.

Thanks, Mathmagic. I hope developers implement such commands soon. Using your algorithm, it is not possible to list combinations with n = 10 e p = 4 ...
