Permutation API

Welcome to the Dowell Permutation API. The Permutation API is a comprehensive tool that enables users to generate permutations of a set of items efficiently. It provides a reliable and high-performance solution for permutation calculations, making it ideal for a wide range of applications such as combinatorial optimization, data analysis, and algorithm design.

Key Features

Dowell Permutation API

Total Possible Permutations

This feature calculates the precise count of all the potential permutations based on the provided values of 'n' and 'r'.

Note : 'n' is total number of items present and 'r' is the total number of items to be selected from 'r'.

exact

Exact Permutations

This feature allows users to find the precise permutations for any given range of 'n' and 'r'. This feature utilizes a specially designed algorithm that ensures accurate and efficient permutation generation.

Note : 'n' is total number of items present and 'r' is the total number of items to be selected from 'r'.

API Usage Guidelines

To get started with the Permutation API, follow these steps:

  1. Review the API Postman Documentation mention below to understand the available endpoints, request parameters, and response formats.

  2. Make API requests to calculate the total number of permutations possible and to find the exact permutations by providing the 'n' , 'r' , and the exact values for each item.

  3. Analyze the returned results, including the number of permutations and the final permutation.

Example

Here is an example of how you can use the Permutation API:

  1. Imagine you have a set of 5 letters: A, B, C, D, and E. You want to generate all possible permutations of these letters by selecting 3 letters.
  2. You can use the Permutations API and provide 'n' as 5 and 'r' as 3 and the letter with which you want start calculating the permutations.
  3. The API will process the data and return a response in JSON format once you make the request. The response will include the total number of possible permutations, along with the generated permutations.
  4. You will now need to select one permuation from the generated permutations and call the API again by providing the next letter that you want to include in the permutation.
  5. Repeat the steps until the 3 letters are selected and permutation for 3 letters is generated.

Python Example

1. Find Permutation

This Python script uses the requests library to send a POST request, finding permutations for a specific set of parameters. It specifies the inserted ID, the next variable, and sets values for ‘n’ and ‘r’. To use, replace ‘your-api-key’ with your actual Dowell API key.

				
					import requests

# Replace 'your-dowell-api-key' with your actual Dowell API key
url = 'https://100050.pythonanywhere.com/permutation/V2//'

data = {
    "inserted_id": "",
    "nextVariable": "A",
    "n": 5,
    "r": 3
}

response = requests.post(url, json=data)
print(response.text)

				
			

2. Save Permutation
