Similar to this question, here's another implementation. Assume the input is already a set.



 (defn powerset
[set]
(reduce
(fn [xs x] (concat xs (map #(cons x %) xs)))
[()]
set))

          There isn't a whole lot here to comment on. I'll just mention a few things:




          • Technically, from my quick search of what a powerset is, this function should return sets. That seems petty, but unless it's documented to return a lazy list of lazy lists, users may try to treat the "subsets" as sets (like using them as functions). I'd finish this function off by mapping set over the list.


          • But to do that, you should rename your parameter, as you're shadowing the build-in set.


          • After doing the above two, it developed quite long lines and became nested. I'd add in some use of ->>, and put a few of the lines on the next line.



          After that, I ended up with:



          (defn powerset [base-set]
          (->> base-set
          (reduce
          (fn [xs x]
          (concat xs
          (map #(cons x %) xs)))
          [()])
          (map set)))
