You could just call your function as-is with a slice of the original list, and then append the initial list element(s) to the results: lst = [0,1,2,3] results = perm(lst[1:]) print map(lambda res,i=lst[0]:[i]+res,results)

Sorry, Brian. I see you suggested something similar in your first reply. Rich

Hi Rich,

no worries. :-)

I've not made much use of lambda yet; it doesn't naturally occur to me. I'm glad I saw your way, too.

But I do feel that my named-function approach is a bit easier to read and reuse.

Best,

Brian vdB
