Hi,

I'am trying to make an HTML programm of all possible combinations in the
Alphabet.
The code exists of 3 letters.
26*26*26 = 17.576 possibilities!
Is there any possibility to have all combinations with a programm? AAA, AAB,
AAC, ....................
Many thanks in advance if somebody could help me out.
Best regards, Michèle

Yes, it is possible to do this with programming languages. HTML is *not* a
programming language. The ML in HTML stand for "markup language."

....
Suppose you made a simple program (say in Basic) to print out all 17
thousand. What do you want to do with this? Are you exploring possible
worlds?

Smile, you're on the candid webcamera! You have been trolled when you
replied to a question like that.

Less than 18 possibilities? Really? Combinatorics seem to have changed since
I last had some affair with her.

But you failed to notice the absurdity of referring to "the Alphabet" as
something containing 26 letters by someone whose name contains "è". Where in
the sequence of the letters of "the Alphabet" should we expect to find "è"?

A very old case exists of a 3 letter code, we can break it open of course,
but than we can't use it anymore.
And no, there is nothing in it, but it is too beautiful to throw it away,
and I see it as a practice for meself.
I've studied Java, but this is more than 15 years ago, of which I forgot a
lot (nearly all .
regards, Michèle

I wrote a javascript program to do what you want. Note: In IE it may give
you a warning about the script taking a long time to run. Click on "No" to
let it continue.

Are you REALLY going to print this is and cross off each code as you try
them? It would be easier to x-ray the box to line up the slots. Also, you
could try "safecracker" mothods. I am sure that it is not as secure as
modern safes, and you should be able to feel for at least one of the
letters. That would reduce your codes to 676 instead of 17,576.

Here is the link that generates the combinations:

She want the result, or the program .... not a stuf that shows:
AAA, AAB, AAC,.....ZZY, ZZZ.

While the city slept, Michèle feverishly typed:

[...]

The following may be of some interest to you - if you haven't seen it
already: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_26

"Base 26 is a fairly natural way of representing numbers as text using the
26-letter Latin alphabet..."

Cheers,

You should look into this using PHP.
A simple 3 level for/next loop is all you need.

Or you could do it just as easy with BASIC.
Probably fairly easy in javascript.
