This is snippet of code solves the interesting (and specialized) problem of generating all permutations of a list. I hope you like recursion. For exmaple:

permute( [0,1,2] )

would return

[[0,1,2],[0,2,1],[1,0,2],[1,2,0],[2,0,1],[2,1,0]]

This python class converts a permission mask in symbolic format (the kind a diretcory listing produces, ex.: drwxr-xr-x) to a string that's usable in a chmod command.

ex.: chmod u=rwx,g=rwx,o=rwtx ~/myscripts/convert_mask.py

This can be very useful when recovering permissions from a backup.

Create a regular expression pattern matching any positive number that is less than or equal to the given max number

Example:

pattern = createRegExNumberPattern( 950 )

print pattern

([0-8]\d\d)|(9[0-4]\d)|(950)

First post here. Tried to get the most minimalistic way to calculate the amount of permutations. The typical formula is:

n! = 1 * 2 * 3 ... * r * r + 1 * ... n
r! = 1 * 2 * 3 ... * r

But since every number between 1 and r is simplified, it's just a multiplication of the (x)range between r+1 and n.

Also as an example of lambda functions on python, and the reduce function, which takes every pair inside a list-type object and runs the function over them.
