> powers of all possible combinations; power is defined as the square of the largest number in a sequence
My problem with this challenge definition is that a sequence is an ordered set, much like Perl arrays.
But it seems to me the solutions presented are based on unordered subsets.
For clarification:
[2,3,4,5] may be a subset of [0 ..10] and there is only one subset of length 4 possible with 2 minimal and 5 maximal.
But 2 sequences for length 4 °
Am I mistaken and is this a case of TL;DR?
Thanks for clarification.
PS: Mohammed's example doesn't help because you need longer arrays to see the difference.
Update
°) And generally n! for length n+2
