Very interesting info, thank you. I often wonder about such
efficiency when writing perl but it doesn't usually matter
too much. I do write postfix loops because they're
pretty and one-line friendly (I ❤ print$_ for@_) but
not when they're nested because I tend to forget about them.
If they're really much faster I could use comments to remind
myself. Anyway your version is slightly faster (~0.750) but
the data has whitespace and when using map to remove that
it gets even slower than mine. What's going on?
time perl -MAlgorithm::Combinatorics=:all -wle'
my $i=variations_with_repetition(["a".."z"],$ARGV[0]);
my @x; push @x, map {s/ //gr} qq[@$_] while $_=$i->next;
print scalar @x' 4

perl -d:NYTProf -MAlgorithm::Combinatorics=:all -wle'
my $i=variations_with_repetition(["a".."z"],$ARGV[0]);
my @x; push @x, map {s/ //gr} qq[@$_] while $_=$i->next;
print scalar @x' 4; nytprofhtml --open

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).

are good places to start.
