I need you to write (in any language) a simple script I can run in Excel or from Win7 (without making any specific software installation) to do the following: combine from 2 to 6 (variables) characters + 1 word according to some rules I can define alpha + beta + gamma + delta + lamda + omega + word where alpha, beta, gamma, delta, lamda and omega are all variables and represent a character. Characters include all letters (A-Z), digits 0-9 and hyphen (-). To clarify, I restrict the output selecting only 2 variables (alpha and beta) and no words. In this case, I will get 37 * 36 = 1332 results (where n = 26+10+1=37, being 26 letters + 10 digits + 1 special character) Word is a constant I can specify (or leave it blank) and can include ANY character (including special characters such as @ , _ . ? ! etc...) The set of possible rules includes: 1. I can set the value of (from 1 only up to 5) variables to a "constant". For example, if I set: alpha = A beta = F gamma = 2 lamda = 1 and omega = T the script will output 37 results (all possible combinations of 26 letters + 10 digits + 1 special character occupying the fourth space of the string AF2_1T 2. I can restrict the value of one or more variables to either letters-only, vowels-only or consonants-only, numbers-only 3. restrict one or more variables to a subset of characters I can specify (basically point #2 is a special case of this rule, where the subsets are pre-defined: letters, vowels, consonants, and numbers) 4. I can force one or more variable to have the exact same value of another one (or force it to be different!), so that I can easily create patterns. For example I might want to have first and fifth characters being the same AND second and fourth characters being the same AND force second character to be different from thirs and sixth. In that case I will say: alpha beta [RULES: beta <> gamma AND beta <> omega] gamma delta [RULES: delta = beta] lamda [RULES: lamda = alpha] omega 5. I can specify certain patterns to limit the combination output. For example I may want to exclude all combinations containing any of this sub-strings: { xy, ht, shk, 3hd, ... }. In this case, for example: "hxt3yd" will be a possible result, while "ht351r", "23hd4u", etc. will not been output. Please note that for each variable, up to 5 rules (or none) can be applied. Basically, If I want to restrict a lot the set of result, I can specify 5 rules x 6 variables = 25 rules! The script will output a list directly into a MS Excel spreadsheet or as a .csv or .txt file, where you will be placing 1 result per line (in Excel, each cell will contain only 1 combination) The output will be the combination of the variables (subject to their respective rules) and a word (string) I will specify from time to time.

Hi. I have about 15 years of programming experience. Mostly I used C, C++ and C# for my projects development. I'm planning to implement the task using .Net Framework. We need to clarify some details regarding your task. For example, is it required to output upper case characters? How do you prefer to setup rules (using configuration file or window interface)?

That is an interesting project! I would write a python script to do that. You simply need to double click on it, and enter all information including fixed characters, rules ect. Output will be either a text file or a .csv you can open in excel. Whatever you prefer. Looking forward to working with you! Cheers, Stefan

Hi, You have taken time & effort to write a detailed description. Thank you. And this sounds very interesting. As I understand this looks like an exercise in generating many STRINGs by following some rules and eliminating some patterns. I have increased the time for completing the project to 6 days compared to a value like 3 days only to ensure that you get a PERFECT solution that works well every time. We have also quoted with the maximum allowed amount as we believe that you would be keen to have a professional solution that makes no compromise in quality. I teach programming to university engineering students and we can do a thorough job to exceed your expectations. DESIGN: What I propose is to write the Visual Basic macro right in the Excel file so that you don't need to do any extra software installation. It will be easy to run. The choice of alpha, beta etc. would be easy as you can list them and change them as you want, by entering values in a row or column as you please. If you like, we can discuss further and I can send you a sample of what you will be getting. May I ask a question. What is your ultimate goal in developing this project ? This is just to understand your purpose so that what we deliver to you should really be giving you the best value. Thanks & Regards, Anil Titus Jacob
