init.py files are optional. Here’s why you should still use them
Since Version 3.3, Python automatically creates "Namespace Packages" in many cases, so you don't always need an __init__.py file. However, it's still helpful to have one.

Combinatoric iterators from itertools
The itertools module is a great one, similar to collections and it has many useful tools. In this article, Juha-Matti Santala explained Combinatoric iterators like product, permutations, combinations, and combinations with replacements. Looking at the examples in the article will help you understand them better.
