Objective:
Generate all possible binary numbers and store in a matrix variable. Each row has a number.

Input:
A is number of bits
B is 2^A
EDIT: B may not be used but because this fits in a real program, the variable is needed for something else.

Examples:
Input: A=1
Output: [A]=[[1,0]]
Input: A=2
Output: [A]=
[[1,0]
[1,1]
[0,0]
[0,1]]

The order of the numbers doesn't matter, it just needs to be all possible present.
Depending on the outcome of the teaser, I can suggest a variation where order matters.

I already have an answer, it is 66 bytes.
EDIT: this routine is used in one of my programs... so the teaser came from there.

151 bytes: (68K code...):
[whiteout]
bin(a)
Func
If a=1 Then
Return {"0","1"}
EndIf
Local l,e,i
{}->l
bin(a-1)->e
For i,1,dim(e)
"0"&e[i]->l[dim(l)+1]
"1"&e[i]->l[dim(l)+1]
EndFor
l
EndFunc
[/whiteout]
(Another 11 bytes could be saved with the Local declaration.)
Ooops... Just realised you want a matrix.

I currently have a version, where the matrix is made within the program, with a size of 88 bytes. Does input and matrix-setup have to be within the program?

Hmm maybe we have 68k teaser here, too. If someone joined ah-blabla...

The input is not needed. A and B hold their values on program entry.
You must set up the matrix. It shouldn't be any errors produced by matrix not defined, dim mismatch and others.
Basically: the matrix doesn't exist or it will get overwritten.

cant you just fill the matrix using randint(0,1 untill you have all solutions?

Yes, if you can assure with 100% and not 99,99999999% sure, then yes. Razz
Now more seriously, repetitions aren't allowed, too.

Is setting the base to binary (68k only) cheating? Because that would reduce the problem down to a simple seq( .

That's not really a challenge though is it? (I completely forgot about that possibility... Mad )

BTW, I wrote a matrix version on the 68K, name bn(), size 169bytes. However using A=10 causes a memory error, and A=8 takes ages... It seems A=4 is the border for quick answers.

Well, if you can store the bits into elements of matrix (see examples), that is using calc capabilities and for this teaser it isn't cheating.
But 68k entries only compete with 68k ones.

@Builderboy I am curious :)

Well here is my answer:
Quote:

:For(I,1,A
:2^I
:List>matr(.5Ans>AnsfPart(seq(X-1,X,1,B )/Ans),[B]
:If I=1
:Then
:[B]->[A]
:Else
:augment([B],[A]->[A]
:End
:End

Now thinking of if maybe there is room for optimization...

Very Happy Alright, here it is, whittled down to 52 bytes

[whiteout]{B,A->dim([A]
For(F,1,A
For(G,1,B
iPart(2fPart(g/2^f->[A](G,F
End
End
[/whiteout]

Not sure it could get any smaller than that, but I could be wrong, Weregoose hasn't posted yet XD

It seems that we have already tackled size, so I went for speed. The matrix area (more than) doubles with each pass:
Spoiler wrote:
[font="courier new"][[0][1
For(X,2,A
List►matr(cumSum(binomcdf(2^X-1,0))-1,[A]
int(augment(2/2^X[A],augment(Ans[font="arial"]т
,Ans[font="arial"]т)[font="arial"]т
End

Wow! I like how you took advantage of List>matr not returning a value to Ans. Cool!

For my program it is useful to have the binary possibilities following the order/rule on this example:
111
110
101
100
011
010
001
000

My routine accomplish this. Actually people when want to do all binary possibilities this seems the best way to not forget 1 possibility.
Can you optimize mine in size? It is fast enough.
