howto handle nested for

[Neal Becker]

I know this should be a fairly basic question, but I'm drawing a blank.

I have code that looks like:

for s0 in xrange (n_syms):
for s1 in xrange (n_syms):
for s2 in xrange (n_syms):
for s3 in xrange (n_syms):
for s4 in range (n_syms):
for s5 in range (n_syms):

Now I need the level of nesting to vary dynamically. (e.g., maybe I need to add
for s6 in range (n_syms))

Smells like a candidate for recursion. Also sounds like a use for yield. Any
suggestions?
