Given a list of letters,



letters = "A", "B", ..., "F" 


is it possible to get Mathematica to generate all ‘words’ (in this example, 6 letter words), if only one letter can be used one time only, e.g. ABCDEF, ABCDFE, …? TIA.

          You can create permutations with all of the letters as strings with:



          StringJoin /@ Permutations[letters]


          If you want lists of the individual letters just use:



          Permutations[letters]


          Check the documentation of Permutations to learn about permutations with subsets of letters. If you want to use each letter more than once, look at the documentation for Tuples.
