New submission from Violet Godfrey <violet.a.godfrey at gmail.com>:
I accidentally created an infinite recursion. The error referenced pickling but I did not import pickle.
To reproduce:
def permute(inputList):
'''permute(inputList) -> list
returns list of all permutations of inputList
CURRENTLY DOESN'T ACTUALLLY WORK PROPERLY'''
for i in range(len(inputList)-1):
tempList = inputList[:-i-2]
tempList.append(inputList[-1])
for num in inputList[-i-2:-1]:
tempList.append(num)
print(tempList)
permute(tempList) # runs infinitely (whoops)
print()
permute([1,2,3,4])
Error thrown:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\Violet\Documents\Python Files\test.py", line 14, in <module>
permute([1,2,3,4])
File "C:\Users\Violet\Documents\Python Files\test.py", line 11, in permute
permute(tempList) # runs infinitely (whoops)
File "C:\Users\Violet\Documents\Python Files\test.py", line 11, in permute

permute(tempList) # runs infinitely (whoops)

print(tempList)
