  2. Jumble - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jumble

    Input: J, all the jumbled letters that form an unknown W word(s) Frame a word list Y with all permutations of J; For each word in Y check if the word is existing in the dictionary; If a match is found then collect it in word list W; Print the words in W; End; Algorithm to find the permutations of J: Begin

  3. Permutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permutation

    Anagrams of a word whose letters are all different are also permutations: the letters are already ordered in the original word, and the anagram reorders them. The study of permutations of finite sets is an important topic in combinatorics and group theory .

  4. Lexicographic order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexicographic_order

    A word u is a prefix (or 'truncation') of another word v if there exists a word w such that v = uw. By this definition, the empty word ( ε {\displaystyle \varepsilon } ) is a prefix of every word, and every word is a prefix of itself (with w = ε {\displaystyle =\varepsilon } ); care must be taken if these cases are to be excluded.

  5. Character theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Character_theory

    When θ is the trivial character of H, the induced character obtained is known as the permutation character of G (on the cosets of H). The general technique of character induction and later refinements found numerous applications in finite group theory and elsewhere in mathematics, in the hands of mathematicians such as Emil Artin , Richard ...

  6. Transposition cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transposition_cipher

    Both the width of the rows and the permutation of the columns are usually defined by a keyword. For example, the keyword ZEBRAS is of length 6 (so the rows are of length 6), and the permutation is defined by the alphabetical order of the letters in the keyword. In this case, the order would be "6 3 2 4 1 5".

  7. Combination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combination

    In mathematics, a combination is a selection of items from a set that has distinct members, such that the order of selection does not matter (unlike permutations).For example, given three fruits, say an apple, an orange and a pear, there are three combinations of two that can be drawn from this set: an apple and a pear; an apple and an orange; or a pear and an orange.

  8. Combinations and permutations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combinations_and_permutations

    Combinations and permutations in the mathematical sense are described in several articles. Described together, in-depth: Twelvefold way; Explained separately in a more accessible way: Combination; Permutation; For meanings outside of mathematics, please see both words’ disambiguation pages: Combination (disambiguation) Permutation ...

  9. Superpermutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superpermutation

    For instance, in the case of n = 2, the superpermutation 1221 contains all possible permutations (12 and 21), but the shorter string 121 also contains both permutations. It has been shown that for 1 ≤ n ≤ 5, the smallest superpermutation on n symbols has length 1! + 2! + … + n! (sequence A180632 in the OEIS). The first four smallest ...
