Posts like this are why I love HN. I recently wrote a program to find anagrams of a given string (a Countdown solver if you live in the UK).
It includes a really naive method for generating all possible permutations of the string, but reading this post I can immediately see a far better way to do it.
That's my weekend taken care of! thanks to the poster and author.
