Thanks James, this is exactly what I was looking for. I will rename it to cartesian_product.
By the way, is it possible to submit new algorithms for possible inclusion into the MPL? Or is the library considered to be "finished"?
George, earlier this year, there was yet another person who had a proposed solution: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.devel/171761 The OP in that thread benchmarked the solution: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.devel/171761/focus=172030 I'd guess that before anything is adopted when there are several alternatives, the pros/cons and a benchmark comparing the alternatives would be desirable. -regards, Larry
