这是另一个更简单的方法来做一个字符串的排列。

public class Solution4 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
    String  a = "Protijayi";
  per(a, 0);

}

static void per(String a  , int start ) {
      //bse case;
    if(a.length() == start) {System.out.println(a);}
    char[] ca = a.toCharArray();
    //swap 
    for (int i = start; i < ca.length; i++) {
        char t = ca[i];
        ca[i] = ca[start];
        ca[start] = t;
        per(new String(ca),start+1);
    }

}//per

}

为排列和组合添加更详细的NcK/NcR

public static void combinationNcK(List<String> inputList, String prefix, int chooseCount, List<String> resultList) {
    if (chooseCount == 0)
        resultList.add(prefix);
    else {
        for (int i = 0; i < inputList.size(); i++)
            combinationNcK(inputList.subList(i + 1, inputList.size()), prefix + "," + inputList.get(i), chooseCount - 1, resultList);

        // Finally print once all combinations are done
        if (prefix.equalsIgnoreCase("")) {
            resultList.stream().map(str -> str.substring(1)).forEach(System.out::println);
        }
    }
}

public static void permNcK(List<String> inputList, int chooseCount, List<String> resultList) {
    for (int count = 0; count < inputList.size(); count++) {
        permNcK(inputList, "", chooseCount, resultList);
        resultList = new ArrayList<String>();
        Collections.rotate(inputList, 1);
        System.out.println("-------------------------");
    }

}

public static void permNcK(List<String> inputList, String prefix, int chooseCount, List<String> resultList) {
    if (chooseCount == 0)
        resultList.add(prefix);
    else {
        for (int i = 0; i < inputList.size(); i++)
            combinationNcK(inputList.subList(i + 1, inputList.size()), prefix + "," + inputList.get(i), chooseCount - 1, resultList);

        // Finally print once all combinations are done
        if (prefix.equalsIgnoreCase("")) {
            resultList.stream().map(str -> str.substring(1)).forEach(System.out::println);
        }
    }
}

public static void main(String[] args) {
    List<String> positions = Arrays.asList(new String[] { "1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8" });
    List<String> resultList = new ArrayList<String>();
    //combinationNcK(positions, "", 3, resultList);

    permNcK(positions, 3, resultList);

}

使用递归。

依次尝试每个字母作为第一个字母，然后使用递归调用找到剩余字母的所有排列。 基本情况是，当输入是空字符串时，唯一的排列就是空字符串。

public static void permutation(String str) { 
    permutation("", str); 
}

private static void permutation(String prefix, String str) {
    int n = str.length();
    if (n == 0) System.out.println(prefix);
    else {
        for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
            permutation(prefix + str.charAt(i), str.substring(0, i) + str.substring(i+1, n));
    }
}

(通过Java编程入门)

下面是一个java实现:

/* All Permutations of a String */

import java.util.*;
import java.lang.*;
import java.io.*;

/* Complexity O(n*n!) */
class Ideone
{
     public static ArrayList<String> strPerm(String str, ArrayList<String> list)
     {
        int len = str.length();
        if(len==1){
            list.add(str);
            return list;
        }

        list = strPerm(str.substring(0,len-1),list);
        int ls = list.size();
        char ap = str.charAt(len-1);
        for(int i=0;i<ls;i++){
            String temp = list.get(i);
            int tl = temp.length();
            for(int j=0;j<=tl;j++){
                list.add(temp.substring(0,j)+ap+temp.substring(j,tl));  
            }
        }

        while(true){
            String temp = list.get(0);
            if(temp.length()<len)
                list.remove(temp);
            else
                break;
        }

        return list;
    }

    public static void main (String[] args) throws java.lang.Exception
    {
        String str = "abc";
        ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<>();

        list = strPerm(str,list);
        System.out.println("Total Permutations : "+list.size());
        for(int i=0;i<list.size();i++)
            System.out.println(list.get(i));

    }
}

在这里和其他论坛给出的所有解决方案中，我最喜欢Mark Byers。这个描述实际上让我自己思考并编写了代码。 可惜我不能投票支持他的解决方案，因为我是新手。 无论如何，这是我对他的描述的实现

public class PermTest {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        String str = "abcdef";
        StringBuffer strBuf = new StringBuffer(str);
        doPerm(strBuf,0);
    }

    private static void doPerm(StringBuffer str, int index){

        if(index == str.length())
            System.out.println(str);            
        else { //recursively solve this by placing all other chars at current first pos
            doPerm(str, index+1);
            for (int i = index+1; i < str.length(); i++) {//start swapping all other chars with current first char
                swap(str,index, i);
                doPerm(str, index+1);
                swap(str,i, index);//restore back my string buffer
            }
        }
    }

    private  static void swap(StringBuffer str, int pos1, int pos2){
        char t1 = str.charAt(pos1);
        str.setCharAt(pos1, str.charAt(pos2));
        str.setCharAt(pos2, t1);
    }
}   

我更喜欢这个解决方案，而不是第一个解决方案，因为这个解决方案使用StringBuffer。我不会说我的解决方案没有创建任何临时字符串(它实际上在system.out.println中创建，其中调用StringBuffer的toString())。但我只是觉得这比第一个解决方案好太多的字符串字面值被创建。可能有些性能人员可以根据“内存”来评估这一点(对于“时间”来说，由于额外的“交换”，它已经滞后了)
