Much, but not all, of the functions in Combinatorica have been added to Mathematica's core. Subsets is one example. Best, Harvey -----Original Message----- From: Alan [mailto:alan.isaac at gmail.com] Sent: Sunday, September 18, 2011 4:13 AM To: mathgroup at smc.vnet.net Subject: [mg121550] namespaces Newbie question (by example): How can I access KSubsets (which I believe is only in Combinatorica) without hiding the kernel's graph functions? (I.e., I would like to be able access the Combinatorica functions *only* when I specify e.g. Combinatorica`KSubsets, so that if e.g. I just use the short name Graph this refers to System`Graph. So I don't want to say e.g. Needs["Combinatorica`"] because then I cannot just use Graph to refer to System`Graph. Ideally, I'd like an equivalent to a name import from a Python package (e.g., ``from mypackage import myfunction``). Short of that, I thought about reordering the $ContextPath, but I'm not sure this is a good idea (or how to do it correctly). Hope that's clear enough. Thanks, Alan Isaac
