Sorawee Porncharoenwase 6ace62a717 list: optimize in-combinations and combinations
This PR in a sense reverts f83cec1b04 and attempts to directly fix
the bug that the commit tries to address with an approach similar to the
original one.

The problem with the aforementioned commit is that, Gosper's hack
only works efficiently when the length of `l` is small enough that
the number representation can fit into a fixnum
(so that all bit operations take constant time).
When the length of `l` is large, the number representation could
become a bignum with length proportional to the length of `l`.
This is not ideal because it causes the time complexity of the algorithm
to be `O({|l| choose k} |l|)` instead of `O({|l| choose k} k)`, which
would be a significant performance degradation when `|l|` is much
larger than `k`.

Racket is a general-purpose programming language and an ecosystem for language-oriented programming.

This repository holds the source code for the core of Racket plus some related packages. The rest of the Racket distribution source code is in other repositories, mostly under the Racket GitHub organization.

Quick Start

Pre-built versions of Racket for a variety of operating systems and architectures, as well as convenient source distributions are available at

https://download.racket-lang.org

Racket comes with extensive documentation, including several tutorials. You can read all of this documentation, as well as documentation for third-party packages at

https://docs.racket-lang.org

Building from Source
