Write a method named nextPermutation
that accepts an array of integers and rearranges its elements into the next permutation of that array's values in numerical order.
For example, consider the array {1, 2, 3}
.
The permutations of this array, arranged in numerical order, are:
{1, 2, 3}
{1, 3, 2}
{2, 1, 3}
{2, 3, 1}
{3, 1, 2}
{3, 2, 1}
So if your method were called and passed the array {2, 1, 3}
, you would rearrange it to {2, 3, 1}
, which is the next permutation listed above.
If you are passed the last permutation in numerical order, {3, 2, 1}
, rearrange it into the first permutation, {1, 2, 3}
.
As another example, if passed {1, 2, 7, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3}
, your method should modify the array to store {1, 2, 8, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}
.
