Thanks a lot to all helpers. Now I've come up with a solution. The problem in appending all permutations(a) to a list L was that whenever "a" changed the values in L would also change because it contained just a reference to a. L+=[list(a)] or L.append(list(a)) solved this issue. Also, more accurate solution will be to use 'yield from'

Here is a sample that shows how a generator is working. to keep the code in good readability, i have used itertools.permutations(). res_perm is a generator object. i have included 2 print statements that demonstrates the "interaction" of the main program and the function permut() from itertools import permutations as pm def permut(nums): for i in pm(nums): print('next step is yield ',end ='') # for demonstration only yield i res_perm = permut([1,2,3]) for i in res_perm: print(i,end='') print(' <-- from main...') # for demonstration only

Here is a simple solution: import itertools def per(a): return itertools.permutations(a) for l in per([1, 2, 3, 4]): print('list = ' + str(l))

Bro I know about generators and how yield and return works. I want my function to yield each permutation. As it is recursion I'm not able to return/yield the (permutated) values. I even tried taking another list and appending each permutation(a) to it but in vain.

Modules are always there but we should prefer using our brain if you don't mind. I've made my own code for it and in that I want some help.
