Dear all,
I need to generate all the vectors, of a given length N, that have  
these three properties:

1- the entries have to be among -2,-1,0,1,2
2- the sum of all the entries has to be 0
3- only two or four of the entries can be different from 0

do you have any suggestions on how i can do that? i tried something  
but without success.. expecially i don't know how to implement the  
third rule..
thank you in advance!
Filippo
