31. Next Permutation
The next permutation of an array of integers is the next lexicographically greater permutation of its integer. If such arrangement is not possible, the array must be rearranged as the lowest possible order (i.e., sorted in ascending order).
- For example, the next permutation of
arr = [1,2,3]
is[1,3,2]
. - While the next permutation of
arr = [3,2,1]
is[1,2,3]
because[3,2,1]
does not have a lexicographical larger rearrangement.
Given an array of integers nums
, find the next permutation of nums
.
The replacement must be in place and use only constant extra memory.
def nextPermutation(nums):
L = len(nums)
pivot = -1
for i in range (L-2, -1, -1):
if nums[i] < nums[i+1]:
pivot = i
break
if pivot >= 0:
for j in range (L-1, pivot, -1):
if nums[j] > nums[pivot]:
nums[j], nums[pivot] = nums[pivot], nums[j]
break
# reverse, pivot+1-th to end
i, j = pivot + 1, L - 1
while i < j:
nums[i], nums[j] = nums[j], nums[i]
i += 1
j -= 1
