I want to combine the values in a string. for example,

Let A = a,b,c,d

I want the combination as,

AComb = a,b,c,d,ab,ac,ad,bc,bd,cd,abc,abd,bcd,acd

i am Assuming that A is a Set

scala> val A =Set("a","b","c","d")
A: scala.collection.immutable.Set[String] = Set(a, b, c, d)


scala> val AComb=A.toSet[String].subsets.map(_.mkString).toVector
AComb: Vector[String] = Vector("", a, b, c, d, ab, ac, ad, bc, bd, cd, abc, abd, acd, bcd, abcd)

i am thinking that you didn't need that first element so you can try

scala> val AComb=A.toSet[String].subsets.map(_.mkString).toVector.tail
AComb: scala.collection.immutable.Vector[String] = Vector(a, b, c, d, ab, ac, ad, bc, bd, cd, abc, abd, acd, bcd, abcd)

removing first and last element

scala> val AComb=A.toSet[String].subsets.map(_.mkString).toVector.init.tail
AComb: scala.collection.immutable.Vector[String] = Vector(a, b, c, d, ab, ac, ad, bc, bd, cd, abc, abd, acd, bcd)

updated according to comment

scala> val xc1=Set("sunny","hot","high","FALSE","no")
xc1: scala.collection.immutable.Set[String] = Set(sunny, FALSE, hot, no, high)

scala> val AComb=xc1.toSet[String].subsets.map(_.mkString(" ")).toVector.tail;
AComb: scala.collection.immutable.Vector[String] = Vector(sunny, FALSE, hot, no, high, sunny FALSE, sunny hot, sunny no, sunny high, FALSE hot, FALSE no, FALSE high, hot no, hot high, no high, sunny FALSE hot, sunny FALSE no, sunny FALSE high, sunny hot no, sunny hot high, sunny no high, FALSE hot no, FALSE hot high, FALSE no high, hot no high, sunny FALSE hot no, sunny FALSE hot high, sunny FALSE no high, sunny hot no high, FALSE hot no high)
