Kth Permutation

给定 n k,求123..n组成的排列中的第k个排列

By listing and labeling all of the permutations in order,

We get the following sequence (ie, for n = 3):

  1. "123"

  2. "132"

  3. "213"

  4. "231"

  5. "312"

  6. "321"

Given n and k, return the kth permutation sequence.

Note: Given n will be between 1 and 9 inclusive.

Example

Example 1:

Input:
 n = 3, k = 3

Output:
 "213"

Example 2:

Input:
 n = 4, k = 9

Output:
 "2314"

Note

To be revisited...

Code

public class Solution {

    public String getPermutation(int n, int k) {
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
        boolean[] used = new boolean[n];

        k = k - 1;
        int factor = 1;
        for (int i = 1; i < n; i++) {
            factor *= i;
        }

        for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
            int index = k / factor;
            k = k % factor;
            for (int j = 0; j < n; j++) {
                if (used[j] == false) {
                    if (index == 0) {
                        used[j] = true;
                        sb.append((char) ('0' + j + 1));
                        break;
                    } else {
                        index--;
                    }
                }
            }
            if (i < n - 1) {
                factor = factor / (n - 1 - i);
            }
        }

        return sb.toString();
    }
}
