Print all permutations of a string in php
Php program for Print all permutations of a string. Here problem description and explanation.
<?php
// Php program for
// Print all permutations of a string
class Permutation
{
// Swapping two string elements by index
public
function swap($text, $size, $a, $b)
{
// Check valid location of swap element
if (($a >= 0 && $a < $size) && ($b >= 0 && $b < $size))
{
//Get first character
$first = $text[$a];
//Get second character
$second = $text[$b];
//Put character
$text = substr($text, 0, $b - strlen($text)).$first.
substr($text, $b + 1);
$text = substr($text, 0, $a - strlen($text)).$second.
substr($text, $a + 1);
}
return $text;
}
// Method which is print all permutations of given string
public
function findPermutation($text, $n, $size)
{
if ($n > $size)
{
return;
}
if ($n == $size)
{
echo $text, "\n";
return;
}
for ($i = $n; $i < $size; ++$i)
{
// Swap the element
$text = $this->swap($text, $size, $i, $n);
$this->findPermutation($text, $n + 1, $size);
// Swap the element
$text = $this->swap($text, $size, $i, $n);
}
}
public static
function main($args)
{
$task = new Permutation();
$text = "ABC";
$size = strlen($text);
$task->findPermutation($text, 0, $size);
print("\n");
$text = "abcd";
$size = strlen($text);
$task->findPermutation($text, 0, $size);
}
}
Permutation::main(array());
