ok, im trying to write a very complex program, well perhaps not complex but time consuming, anyway, i am trying to write a program that will take every symbol, number, and letter that I enter, and make it combine them in every combination until it cant combine anymore without repeating itself, how would i go about doing this? Thank you

Permutations and Combinations. Specifically the combination part. A problem arises if you enter the same item multiple times.

abc cab acb cba ...
Or do you mean something else?
As per wizard-fred, how about duplicate given chars?
If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.

Finding/making combinations is relatively easy. Evaluating them (for example, hands in a card game like poker) is much more difficult. My preference is using arrays.
