compile = truefalse

True means compile the iterator. The default is true.

The WeightedComposition command returns an iterator that generates all weighted compositions of T with weights W. The order in which the weighted compositions are generated is co-lexicographic. (That is, lexicographic in the reverse of the weighted compositions.)

A weighted composition is a sequence of nonnegative integers, $\left(r_1\,\dots \,r_n\right)$, such that $T\=\sum _{k\=1}^n{W}_k{r}_k$ with $n=\mathrm{numelems}\left(W\right)$. Unlike regular compositions, but like bounded compositions, a weighted composition is understood to be ordered: $r_k$ corresponds to $W_k$.

The Iterator[WeightedComposition] command was introduced in Maple 2021.
