Permutation Sequence

The set [1,2,3,…,n] contains a total of n! unique permutations.

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.

class Solution {
public:
    string getPermutation(int n, int k) {
        k -= 1;
        int factor = 1;
        vector<char> a;
        for (int i = 1; i < n; i++)
        {
            factor *= i;
            a.push_back(i+'0');
        }
        a.push_back(n+'0');

        int boundary = n-1;
        string result;
        while (k > 0)
        {
            int temp = k/factor;//以n=3为例,最高位每两次换一个。假设"123"为第0个,查找的第4个为"312"。则temp=4/2=2,所以将a[2]添加入字符串中。
            result += a[temp];
            a.erase(a.begin()+temp);

            k %= factor;
            factor /= boundary;
            boundary -= 1;
        }

        int len = a.size();
        for (int i = 0; i < len; i++) 
        {
            result += a[i];
        }

        return result;
    }
};
