To extend your algorithm to make the number of loops arbitrary, use Algorithm::Loops's NestedLoops.
use strict; use warnings; use Algorithm::Loops qw( NestedLoops ); my @arr = qw( A B C D E F ); my $N = 2; my $i = NestedLoops([ [ 0 .. @arr ], ( sub { [ $_ .. @arr ] } ) x ($N-1) ]); while (my (@positions) = $i->()) { my @tmp = @arr; splice(@tmp, $_, 0, 'N') for reverse @positions; print(join(',', @tmp), "\n"); }

Or without inserting elements in the middle of an array (which should help with long arrays):

while (my (@positions) = $i->()) { my @tmp; my $cur = 0; for my $pos (@positions) { push @tmp, @arr[$cur..$pos-1]; $cur = $pos; push @tmp, 'N'; } push @tmp, @arr[$cur..$#arr]; print(join(',', @tmp), "\n"); }

Or a version that uses no extra memory.

while (my (@positions) = $i->()) { my $sep = ''; my $cur = 0; for my $pos (@positions) { print($sep); $sep = ', '; print($arr[$cur++], $sep) while $cur < $pos; print('N'); } print($sep, $arr[$cur++]) while $cur < @arr; print("\n"); }

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
