- !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::P 
  body: When invoked with a block, yields all combinations of length <em>n</em> of elements from <em>ary</em> and then returns <em>ary</em> itself. The implementation makes no guarantees about the order in which the combinations are yielded.
- !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::P 
  body: When invoked without a block, returns an enumerator object instead.
