# PyROOT implements a Python iterator

# To get the indices, which result in all combinations, you can call the
# following helper.
# Note that you can also pass the size of the vectors directly.
idx = Combinations(v1, v2)
 
# Next, the respective elements can be taken via the computed indices.

# Finally, you can perform any set of operations conveniently.

# single RVec, you can perform this as follows.
 
# Get the indices of unique triples for the given vector.
