用递归求解，遍历元素，取第i个元素，然后问自己：“其余项目的排列是什么”，直到没有更多的元素。

我在这里解释了解决方案：https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7GE7psS2b4

class Solution:
    def permute(self,nums:List[int])->List[List[int]]:
        res=[]
        def dfs(nums,path):
            if len(nums)==0:
                res.append(path)
            for i in range(len(nums)):
                dfs(nums[:i]+nums[i+1:],path+[nums[i]])
        dfs(nums,[])
        return res

使用标准库中的itertools.permutations：

import itertools
list(itertools.permutations([1, 2, 3]))

从这里改编的是itertools.permutations如何实现的演示：

def permutations(elements):
    if len(elements) <= 1:
        yield elements
        return
    for perm in permutations(elements[1:]):
        for i in range(len(elements)):
            # nb elements[0:1] works in both string and list contexts
            yield perm[:i] + elements[0:1] + perm[i:]

itertools.permutations文档中列出了两种替代方法

def permutations(iterable, r=None):
    # permutations('ABCD', 2) --> AB AC AD BA BC BD CA CB CD DA DB DC
    # permutations(range(3)) --> 012 021 102 120 201 210
    pool = tuple(iterable)
    n = len(pool)
    r = n if r is None else r
    if r > n:
        return
    indices = range(n)
    cycles = range(n, n-r, -1)
    yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices[:r])
    while n:
        for i in reversed(range(r)):
            cycles[i] -= 1
            if cycles[i] == 0:
                indices[i:] = indices[i+1:] + indices[i:i+1]
                cycles[i] = n - i
            else:
                j = cycles[i]
                indices[i], indices[-j] = indices[-j], indices[i]
                yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices[:r])
                break
        else:
            return

另一个基于itertools.product：

def permutations(iterable, r=None):
    pool = tuple(iterable)
    n = len(pool)
    r = n if r is None else r
    for indices in product(range(n), repeat=r):
        if len(set(indices)) == r:
            yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)

此解决方案实现了一个生成器，以避免在内存中保留所有排列：

def permutations (orig_list):
    if not isinstance(orig_list, list):
        orig_list = list(orig_list)

    yield orig_list

    if len(orig_list) == 1:
        return

    for n in sorted(orig_list):
        new_list = orig_list[:]
        pos = new_list.index(n)
        del(new_list[pos])
        new_list.insert(0, n)
        for resto in permutations(new_list[1:]):
            if new_list[:1] + resto <> orig_list:
                yield new_list[:1] + resto

用递归求解，遍历元素，取第i个元素，然后问自己：“其余项目的排列是什么”，直到没有更多的元素。

class Solution:

        res=[]
        def dfs(nums,path):
            if len(nums)==0:
                res.append(path)
            for i in range(len(nums)):
                dfs(nums[:i]+nums[i+1:],path+[nums[i]])
        dfs(nums,[])
        return res

def permutation(word, first_char=None):
    if word == None or len(word) == 0: return []
    if len(word) == 1: return [word]

    result = []
    first_char = word[0]
    for sub_word in permutation(word[1:], first_char):
        result += insert(first_char, sub_word)
    return sorted(result)

def insert(ch, sub_word):
    arr = [ch + sub_word]
    for i in range(len(sub_word)):
        arr.append(sub_word[i:] + ch + sub_word[:i])
    return arr


assert permutation(None) == []
assert permutation('') == []
assert permutation('1')  == ['1']
assert permutation('12') == ['12', '21']

print permutation('abc')

输出：['abc'，'acb'，'bac'，'bca'，'cab'，'cba']

免责声明：无耻的插件由包作者。：）

trotter包与大多数实现的不同之处在于，它生成的伪列表实际上不包含排列，而是描述排列与排序中各个位置之间的映射，从而可以处理非常大的排列“列表”，如本演示所示，它在一个包含字母表中所有字母排列的伪列表中执行相当即时的操作和查找，而不使用比典型网页更多的内存或处理。

在任何情况下，要生成排列列表，我们可以执行以下操作。

import trotter

my_permutations = trotter.Permutations(3, [1, 2, 3])

print(my_permutations)

for p in my_permutations:
    print(p)

输出：

A pseudo-list containing 6 3-permutations of [1, 2, 3].
[1, 2, 3]
[1, 3, 2]
[3, 1, 2]
[3, 2, 1]
[2, 3, 1]
[2, 1, 3]
