so that if the inputs iterables are sorted, the product tuples are emitted
in sorted order.
To compute the product of an iterable with itself, specify the number of
repetitions with the optional *repeat* keyword argument. For example,
``product(A, repeat=4)`` means the same as ``product(A, A, A, A)``.
Equivalent to the following except that the actual implementation does not

def product(*args):
pools = map(tuple, args)
def product(*args, **kwds):
pools = map(tuple, args) * kwds.get('repeat', 1)
if pools:
result = [[]]
for pool in pools:
