The powerset of {1, 2, 3}
is:
{{}, {2}, {3}, {2, 3}, {1, 2}, {1, 3}, {1, 2, 3}, {1}}
Let\'s say I have a Set
in Java:<
Algorithm:
Input: Set[], set_size 1. Get the size of power set powet_set_size = pow(2, set_size) 2 Loop for counter from 0 to pow_set_size (a) Loop for i = 0 to set_size (i) If ith bit in counter is set Print ith element from set for this subset (b) Print seperator for subsets i.e., newline
#include
#include
void printPowerSet(char *set, int set_size)
{
/*set_size of power set of a set with set_size
n is (2**n -1)*/
unsigned int pow_set_size = pow(2, set_size);
int counter, j;
/*Run from counter 000..0 to 111..1*/
for(counter = 0; counter < pow_set_size; counter++)
{
for(j = 0; j < set_size; j++)
{
/* Check if jth bit in the counter is set
If set then pront jth element from set */
if(counter & (1<
