Topic: axiom of choice for finite collections?

Hello, is there code that proves the axiom of choice for finite collections that doesn't invoke the infinite axiom of choice? Thanks!

You might need your collection to be docs#encodable if you really want to avoid choice.

Maybe docs#fintype.choose

You get two answers because you didn't formalise your question with a #mwe ;-)
