I'd still simulate a z digit number in an x-ary system, and the x different values for the digits correspond to the letters of the string S. In c++, I would write a small class with an increment operator which carries the 1 to the next digit when reaching x in one digit.
I do it for 250$/hr, and you get a free gourd!

I guess I'm a shameless slut because I'll do it for $100.00 US. I mean c'mon, it's a pretty easy problem.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

No guys! Not my homework!
I was just fascinated by the idea of inserting "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz" as input- output all the result into a text file , then run my computer till I turn 40, and then I can open the text file and all the words in the dictionary and all the words that will be in the dictionary in the future will be in my text file. So technically, I'll have all the words anyone can ever make up -in my text file!!
@K, So when you look at it from the text files perspective, it's living in the past, present and the future simultaneously because all the words in the past, present and even the future is in the text file..

We're doing the same kind of degree right? I'll worship your feet for eternity if you solve this by yourself in c.

But it's not your homework, huh?
ETA: honestly, I'd help you, but it sounds like this thing is due tomorrow, and you've procrasturbated.
If it can wait, I'll give it a look after my exams tomorrow.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Of course not, in Python it's basically
"
begin program
dothethingIwant();
end program
"

Yes it's very cool! I actually made a program that does exactly that. If I run my program for a few minutes it'll contain names of everyone I know (not long names). It's just that my program create lots of duplications and isn't at the very least efficient,this means bigger text file size, longer time to open the file and even longer time to search inside the file for very little trade off.
I remember leaving my computer on without my mom knowing (a few years back when I first made this thing) and we went out. After some hours we returned and the text file size was some 6 GB, I was so glad but unfortunately I couldn't open a text file as big as that.
