list manipulation - Equivalent Nested Loop Structure


Consider the following examples:


Flatten @ Table[ f[a, b, c], {a, 1, 3}, {b, 1, 3}, {c, 1, 3}] ==
f @@@ Tuples[ Range[3], 3]

Flatten @ Table[ If[ a != b != c, f[a, b, c], Unevaluated[]], 
                 {a, 1, 3}, {b,  1, 3}, {c, 1, 3}] == 
f @@@ Permutations[ Range[3], {3}]


Flatten @ Table[ f[a, b, c], {a, 1, 5}, {b, a + 1, 5}, {c, b + 1, 5}] == 
f @@@ Subsets[ Range[5], {3}]


True
True
True

Is there a similar built-in function performing this:



Flatten @ Table[ f[a, b, c], {a, 1, 5}, {b, a, 5}, {c, b, 5}]

in a simpler way?



Answer



Here a two more ways, neither of them built-in.
f @@ (# - {0,1,2})& /@ Subsets[Range@7,{3}]
f @@@ Transpose[Transpose@Subsets[Range@7,{3}] - {0,1,2}]


EDIT - The question is related to a long and somewhat tangled MathGroup thread generating submultisets with repeated elements. "sms" below stands for for "submultisets".


sms[n_, k_, f_:List] := With[{i = Table[Unique[],{k}]}, Flatten[Table[f@@i,
   Evaluate[Sequence@@Transpose@{i,Prepend[Most@i,1],Table[n,{k}]}]],k-1]]


sms[5, 3]
sms[5, 3, f]

sms[data_List, k_, f_:List] := With[{i = Table[Unique[],{k}]}, Flatten[Table[f@@data[[i]],
   Evaluate[Sequence@@Transpose@{i,Prepend[Most@i,1],Table[Length@data,{k}]}]],k-1]]

functions - Get leading series expansion term?

Given a function f[x] , I would like to have a function leadingSeries that returns just the leading term in the series around x=0 . For example: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x)] x and leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x^3)/4)/(4 + x)] -(1/(16 x^3)) Is there such a function in Mathematica? Or maybe one can implement it efficiently? EDIT I finally went with the following implementation, based on Carl Woll 's answer: lds[ex_,x_]:=( (ex/.x->(x+O[x]^2))/.SeriesData[U_,Z_,L_List,Mi_,Ma_,De_]:>SeriesData[U,Z,{L[[1]]},Mi,Mi+1,De]//Quiet//Normal) The advantage is, that this one also properly works with functions whose leading term is a constant: lds[Exp[x],x] 1 Answer Update 1 Updated to eliminate SeriesData and to not return additional terms Perhaps you could use: leadingSeries[expr_, x_] := Normal[expr /. x->(x+O[x]^2) /. a_List :> Take[a, 1]] Then for your examples: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x), x] leadingSeries[Exp[x], x] leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x...

How to thread a list

front end - keyboard shortcut to invoke Insert new matrix

I frequently need to type in some matrices, and the menu command Insert > Table/Matrix > New... allows matrices with lines drawn between columns and rows, which is very helpful. I would like to make a keyboard shortcut for it, but cannot find the relevant frontend token command (4209405) for it. Since the FullForm[] and InputForm[] of matrices with lines drawn between rows and columns is the same as those without lines, it's hard to do this via 3rd party system-wide text expanders (e.g. autohotkey or atext on mac). How does one assign a keyboard shortcut for the menu item Insert > Table/Matrix > New... , preferably using only mathematica? Thanks! Answer In the MenuSetup.tr (for linux located in the $InstallationDirectory/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/X/ directory), I changed the line MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog"] to read MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog", MenuKey["m", Modifiers-...
