Excell or something else for word combinations?

condra

Hey guys.

I’ve been using javascript to code bespoke domain name tools, but there is a lot of work involved.

I wonder if anyone can tell me what software or web tools can make text outputs from a word chart. (which can then be fed into GoDaddys batch tool)

More speficially, I want to be able to make 2 lists of words, and get an output of every possible combination of words.

eg

List 1:
Egg
Meat
Bread

List 2:
Friend
Guru
Zone


SOLUTION:
EggFriend
EggGuru
EggZone
MeatFriend
MeatGuru
MeatZone
BreadFriend
BreadGuru
BreadZone

That ^ on a much larger scale. I’m sure Access or Excel might be able to do that, but I don’t have them yet.

Thanks for your time.

I am sure it could be done a lot easier in Perl or Python. Does it have to be a native application, or would it be possible to install another application to provide the solution?

I've subscribed to this thread. If I have time in the morning, Ill write some code in one of those languages.

Hey thanks for the reply. To be honest my Javascript and coding skills are very basic.

I found something which seems to do the job here:

Please don’t go to the trouble of coding a live version!

I do appreciate the offer though.

I know you said don't but it took five minutes in python and was a good way of waking up:

#!python

ListA = ["egg", "bread", "meat", "fish", "fruit", "vegetable"]
ListB = ["friend", "zone", "guru", "expert", "knife", "cup", "plate", "turkey-baster"]

for item in ListA:
        for item1 in ListB:
                print item + item1

Change the list variables as you need to.

That works a treat!

That was actually my first time using Python. Pretty cool

Cheers!

I started learning python about 3 months ago, and to be honest, once you know what you want to do it writes itself.

That literally took me 5 minutes.

That’s cool. I might get stuck into some Python some time, though I should probably focus on improving my javascript skills first!

Impressed at how little code was needed with Python.

Who says you have to be exclusive. Why do you need to improve your javascript?
