我有n个元素。为了举个例子，让我们说，7个元素，1234567。我知道有7个！ =这些7个元素可能有5040个排列。
我想要一个包含两个函数的快速算法：
f（number）将0到5039之间的数字映射到唯一的排列，并且
f'（置换）将置换映射回其生成的数字。
我不关心数字和排列之间的对应关系，只要每个排列都有自己唯一的数字。
所以，例如，我可能有
的功能f(0) = '1234567'
f'('1234567') = 0
想到的最快算法是枚举所有排列并在两个方向上创建查找表，这样，一旦创建表，f（0）将为O（1）和f（'1234567'）将是对字符串的查找。然而，这是内存饥渴，特别是当n变大时。
任何人都可以提出另一种能够快速工作并且没有记忆缺点的算法吗？

我找到了一个O（n）算法，这里有一个简短的解释http://antoinecomeau.blogspot.ca/2014/07/mapping-between-permutations-and.html
public static int[] perm(int n, int k)
{
int i, ind, m=k;
int[] permuted = new int[n];
int[] elems = new int[n];
for(i=0;i<n;i++) elems[i]=i;
for(i=0;i<n;i++)
{
ind=m%(n-i);
m=m/(n-i);
permuted[i]=elems[ind];
elems[ind]=elems[n-i-1];
}
return permuted;
}
public static int inv(int[] perm)
{
int i, k=0, m=1;
int n=perm.length;
int[] pos = new int[n];
int[] elems = new int[n];
for(i=0;i<n;i++) {pos[i]=i; elems[i]=i;}
for(i=0;i<n-1;i++)
{
k+=m*pos[perm[i]];
m=m*(n-i);
pos[elems[n-i-1]]=pos[perm[i]];
elems[pos[perm[i]]]=elems[n-i-1];

每个元素可以位于七个位置之一。要描述一个元素的位置，您需要三位。这意味着您可以将所有元素的位置存储在32位值中。这远非效率，因为这种表示甚至允许所有元素处于相同的位置，但我相信位掩码应该相当快。
然而，超过8个职位你需要更多的东西。

问题解决了。但是，我不确定这些年后你还需要解决方案。大声笑，我刚加入这个网站，所以...... 检查我的Java Permutation类。您可以基于索引获取符号排列，或者给出符号排列，然后获取索引。

* A complete list of Permutation base on an index.
* Algorithm is invented and implemented by Fred Pang fred@pnode.com
* Created by Fred Pang on 18/11/2015.
****************************************************************************************************************
* LOL this is my first Java project. Therefore, my code is very much like C/C++. The coding itself is not
* very professional. but...
*
* This Permutation Class can be use to generate a complete list of all different permutation of a set of symbols.
* nPr will be n!/(n-r)!
* the user can input n = the number of items,
* r = the number of slots for the items,
* provided n >= r
* and a string of single character symbols
*
* the program will generate all possible permutation for the condition.
*
* Say if n = 5, r = 3, and the string is "12345", it will generate sll 60 different permutation of the set
* of 3 character strings.
*
* The algorithm I used is base on a bin slot.
* Just like a human or simply myself to generate a permutation.
*
* if there are 5 symbols to chose from, I'll have 5 bin slot to indicate which symbol is taken.
*
* Note that, once the Permutation object is initialized, or after the constructor is called, the permutation
* table and all entries are defined, including an index.
*
* eg. if pass in value is 5 chose 3, and say the symbol string is "12345"
* then all permutation table is logically defined (not physically to save memory).
* It will be a table as follows
* index output
* 0 123
* 1 124
* 2 125
* 3 132
* 4 134
* 5 135
* 6 143
* 7 145
* : :
* 58 542
* 59 543
*
* all you need to do is call the "String PermGetString(int iIndex)" or the "int[] PermGetIntArray(int iIndex)"
* function or method with an increasing iIndex, starting from 0 to getiMaxIndex() - 1. It will return the string
* or the integer array corresponding to the index.
*
* Also notice that in the input string is "12345" of position 01234, and the output is always in accenting order
* this is how the permutation is generated.
*
* ***************************************************************************************************************
* ==== W a r n i n g ====
* ***************************************************************************************************************
*
* There is very limited error checking in this class
*
* Especially the int PermGetIndex(int[] iInputArray) method
* if the input integer array contains invalid index, it WILL crash the system
*
* the other is the string of symbol pass in when the object is created, not sure what will happen if the
* string is invalid.

您可以使用递归算法对排列进行编码。如果N置换（数字{0，...，N-1}的某些排序）具有{x，...}形式，则将其编码为x + N *（N-1）的编码 - 由数字{0，N-1} - {x}上的“...”表示的-permutation。听起来像是满口，这里有一些代码：
// perm[0]..perm[n-1] must contain the numbers in {0,..,n-1} in any order.
int permToNumber(int *perm, int n) {
// base case
if (n == 1) return 0;
// fix up perm[1]..perm[n-1] to be a permutation on {0,..,n-2}.
for (int i = 1; i < n; i++) {
if (perm[i] > perm[0]) perm[i]--;
}
// recursively compute
return perm[0] + n * permToNumber(perm + 1, n - 1);
}
// number must be >=0, < n!
void numberToPerm(int number, int *perm, int n) {
if (n == 1) {
perm[0] = 0;
return;
}
perm[0] = number % n;
numberToPerm(number / n, perm + 1, n - 1);
// fix up perm[1] .. perm[n-1]
for (int i = 1; i < n; i++) {
if (perm[i] >= perm[0]) perm[i]++;
}
}
该算法为O（n ^ 2）。如果有人有O（n）算法，则奖励积分。
答案 7 :(得分：1)
这是一个多么有趣的问题！
如果您的所有元素都是数字，您可能需要考虑将它们从字符串转换为实际数字。然后，您可以通过按顺序排列所有排列，并将它们放在一个数组中。之后，您可以使用各种搜索算法。
答案 8 :(得分：1)
我之前的回答（删除）很仓促，但我确实得到了实际答案。它由类似的概念factoradic提供，并且与排列有关（我的答案与组合有关，我为这种混淆道歉）。我讨厌发布维基百科链接，但我之前做过的写作由于某种原因是无法理解的。因此，如果需要，我可以稍后对此进行扩展。
答案 9 :(得分：1)
有一本关于此的书。对不起，但我不记得它的名字（很可能你会发现它来自维基百科）。 但无论如何我写了一个枚举系统的python实现：http://kks.cabal.fi/Kombinaattori 其中一些是芬兰语，但只需复制代码和名称变量......
答案 10 :(得分：0)
一个相关的问题是计算逆置换，当仅知道置换数组时，该置换将把置换后的向量恢复到原始顺序。这是O（n）代码（在PHP中）：
// Compute the inverse of a permutation
function GetInvPerm($Perm)
{
$n=count($Perm);
$InvPerm=[];
for ($i=0; $i<$n; ++$i)
$InvPerm[$Perm[$i]]=$i;
return $InvPerm;
} // GetInvPerm

我有这个确切的问题，以为我会提供我的Python解决方案。是O（n ^ 2）。
import copy
def permute(string, num):
''' generates a permutation '''
def build_s(factoradic): # Build string from factoradic in list form
string0 = copy.copy(string)
n = []
for i in range(len(factoradic)):
n.append(string0[factoradic[i]])
del string0[factoradic[i]]
return n
f = len(string)
factoradic = []
while(f != 0): # Generate factoradic number list
factoradic.append(num % f)
num = (num - factoradic[-1])//f
f -= 1
return build_s(factoradic)
s = set()
# Print 120 permutations of this string
for i in range(120):
m = permute(list('abcde'), i)
s.add(''.join(m))
print(len(s)) # Check that we have 120 unique permutations
这很简单；生成数字的因式表示后，我只需从字符串中选择和删除字符。从字符串中删除是为什么这是O（n ^ 2）解决方案。
Antoine的解决方案具有更好的性能。
