#' Create all possible combinations of vector input
#'
#' This function constructs all possible k-way combinations of an input vector.
#' It is primarily useful when used in conjunction with the \code{\link{mdirt}} function,
#' though users may have other uses for it as well. See \code{\link{expand.grid}} for more
#' flexible combination formats.
#'
#' @param theta the vector from which all possible combinations should be obtained
#' @param nfact the number of observations (and therefore the number of columns to return in
#'   the matrix of combinations)
#' @param intercept logical; should a vector of 1's be appended to the first column of the
#'   result to include an intercept design component? Default is \code{FALSE}
#'
#' @author Phil Chalmers \email{rphilip.chalmers@@gmail.com}
#' @return a matrix with all possible combinations
