combination of numbers which is not in matrix form

A=[1 6]; B=[2 3 4]; C=[8 9];

i want:

comb=1 2 8, 1 2 9, 1 3 8, 1 3 9, ........., 6 4 8,6 4 9

i m using for loop for this program but i increase more number of element then my program does not work, its go went to infinity. pls help me for generlise program or any command for this types of problem.

We cannot generalize your program, we we do not see it. So please post your code, when you want us to help.

Did you search in the FileExchange already? This would be a good idea before asking the forum. What about http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/10064-allcomb?

A=[1 6]; B=[2 3 4]; C=[8 9];

Use function fullfact from Statistics Toolbox.

for your case:

t = {A,B,C};
k = cellfun(@numel,t);
ii = fullfact(k);
idx = bsxfun(@plus,ii,cumsum(k) - k);
s = [t{:}];
comb =  s(idx);
comb = reshape(sortrows(comb)',1,[]);  % ADD

thanks for the help, its working nice

[raj singh]

but its combine all row in single row, its nt my prob, my prob is

A=[1 6]; B=[2 3 4]; C=[8 9];

and i want:

comb=1 2 8, 1 2 9, 1 3 8, 1 3 9, ........., 6 4 8,6 4 9

but now i solved my prob with "allcomb" its working superb
