KPermutations

class KPermutations(*args)

K permutations generator.

Available constructors:

KPermutations()

KPermutations(n)

KPermutations(k, n)

Parameters
kinteger

The cardinal of the origin set

ninteger

The cardinal of the goal set

CombinatorialGenerator, Combinations, Tuples

Notes

In the first usage, the generator is built using the default values k = 1, n = 1.

In the second usage, the generator is built using the value k = n.

In the third usage, the generator produces all the injective functions from a set with k elements into a set with n elements. If k = n it means all the permutations of a set with n elements.

The number of indices generated is:

\frac{n!}{(n - k)!}

The combinations generator generates a collection of Indices that contains all the k! permutations of all the \frac{n!}{k! (n - k)!} subsets with k elements of a set with n elements.

The subsets are generated in lexical order, and for each subset all the corresponding injective functions are generated in lexical order.

Examples

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> kperm = ot.KPermutations(2, 4)
>>> print(kperm.generate())
[[0,1],[1,0],[0,2],[2,0],[0,3],[3,0],[1,2],[2,1],[1,3],[3,1],[2,3],[3,2]]#12
