Cartesian Product in Go












0














I am still fairly new to go, and would appreciate any tips on style, best practices, etc, but am especially interested to know if this non-recursive cartesian product implementation can be made significantly faster (eg, when the number of results in the result set is on the order of 1e9).



I've played around with adding more goroutines, but parallelism doesn't seem to help much, if at all. I may be missing a much better approach though.

// 0 0 0 ; 0 0 1; 0 1 0; 0 1 1; 0 2 0; 0 2 1;
