or else as an integer which encodes the set
.

Bases: sage.combinat.subset.SubMultiset_s
The combinatorial class of the subsets of size k of a multiset s. Note that each subset is represented by a list of the elements rather than a set since we can have multiplicities (no multiset data structure yet in sage).
EXAMPLES:
sage: S = Subsets([1,2,3,3],2,submultiset=True)
sage: S._k
2
sage: S.cardinality()

sage: S.first()
[1, 2]

sage: [sub for sub in S]
[[1, 2], [1, 3], [2, 3], [3, 3]]
Return the cardinality of self
EXAMPLES:

sage: S.cardinality()

sage: len(list(S))

sage: S = Subsets([1,2,2,3,3,3],3,submultiset=True)
sage: S.cardinality()

Return the serie (this case a polynom) associated to the counting of the element of self weighted by the number of element they contains
EXAMPLES:
sage: x = ZZ['x'].gen()
sage: l = [1,1,1,1,2,2,3]
sage: for k in xrange(len(l)):
....: S = Subsets(l,k,submultiset=True)
....: print S.generating_serie(x) == S.cardinality()*x**k

Return a random submultiset of given length
EXAMPLES:

{1, 4, 7}
sage: Subsets(7,5).random_element()
{1, 3, 4, 5, 7}
Return the combinatorial class of the subsets of the finite set
s. The set can be given as a list, Set or any iterable
convertible to a set. Alternatively, a non-negative integer
can be provided in place of s; in this case, the result is
the combinatorial class of the subsets of the set
(i.e. of the Sage range(1,n+1)).
A second optional parameter k can be given. In this case, Subsets returns the combinatorial class of subsets of s of size k.
Warning
The subsets are returned as Sets. Do not assume that these Sets are ordered; they often are not! (E.g., Subsets(10).list()[619] returns {10, 4, 5, 6, 7} on my system.) See SubsetsSorted for a similar class which returns the subsets as sorted tuples.
Finally the option submultiset allows one to deal with sets with repeated elements, usually called multisets. The method then returns the class of all multisets in which every element is contained at most as often as it is contained in s. These multisets are encoded as lists.
EXAMPLES:
sage: S = Subsets([1, 2, 3]); S
Subsets of {1, 2, 3}
sage: S.cardinality()
8
sage: S.first()
{}
sage: S.last()
{1, 2, 3}
sage: S.random_element() # random
{2}
sage: S.list()
[{}, {1}, {2}, {3}, {1, 2}, {1, 3}, {2, 3}, {1, 2, 3}]
Here is the same example where the set is given as an integer:
sage: S = Subsets(3)
sage: S.list()
[{}, {1}, {2}, {3}, {1, 2}, {1, 3}, {2, 3}, {1, 2, 3}]
We demonstrate various the effect of the various options:
sage: S = Subsets(3, 2); S
Subsets of {1, 2, 3} of size 2
sage: S.list()
[{1, 2}, {1, 3}, {2, 3}]
sage: S = Subsets([1, 2, 2], submultiset=True); S
SubMultiset of [1, 2, 2]
sage: S.list()
[[], [1], [2], [1, 2], [2, 2], [1, 2, 2]]
sage: S = Subsets([1, 2, 2, 3], 3, submultiset=True); S
SubMultiset of [1, 2, 2, 3] of size 3
sage: S.list()
[[1, 2, 2], [1, 2, 3], [2, 2, 3]]
sage: S = Subsets(['a','b','a','b'], 2, submultiset=True); S.list()
[['a', 'a'], ['a', 'b'], ['b', 'b']]
And it is possible to play with subsets of subsets:
sage: S = Subsets(3)
sage: S2 = Subsets(S); S2
Subsets of Subsets of {1, 2, 3}
sage: S2.cardinality()
256
sage: it = iter(S2)
sage: [next(it) for _ in xrange(8)]
[{}, {{}}, {{1}}, {{2}}, {{3}}, {{1, 2}}, {{1, 3}}, {{2, 3}}]
sage: S2.random_element() # random
{{2}, {1, 2, 3}, {}}
sage: [S2.unrank(k) for k in xrange(256)] == S2.list()
True
sage: S3 = Subsets(S2)
sage: S3.cardinality()
