Algorithm
Problem Name: Python -
In this HackerRank Functions in PYTHON problem solution,
This tool returns successive r length permutations of elements in an iterable.
If r is not specified or is None, then r defaults to the length of the iterable, and all possible full length permutations are generated.
Permutations are printed in a lexicographic sorted order. So, if the input iterable is sorted, the permutation tuples will be produced in a sorted order.
Sample Code
>>> from itertools import permutations
>>> print permutations(['1','2','3'])
<itertools.permutations object at 0x02A45210>
>>>
>>> print list(permutations(['1','2','3']))
[('1', '2', '3'), ('1', '3', '2'), ('2', '1', '3'), ('2', '3', '1'), ('3', '1', '2'), ('3', '2', '1')]
>>>
>>> print list(permutations(['1','2','3'],2))
[('1', '2'), ('1', '3'), ('2', '1'), ('2', '3'), ('3', '1'), ('3', '2')]
>>>
>>> print list(permutations('abc',3))
[('a', 'b', 'c'), ('a', 'c', 'b'), ('b', 'a', 'c'), ('b', 'c', 'a'), ('c', 'a', 'b'), ('c', 'b', 'a')]
Task
You are given a string S.
Your task is to print all possible permutations of size k of the string in lexicographic sorted order.
Input Format
A single line containing the space separated string S and the integer value k:
Constraints
0 < k <= len(s)
The string contains only UPPERCASE characters.
Output Format
Print the permutations of the string S on separate lines.
Sample Input
HACK 2
Sample Output
AC
AH
AK
CA
CH
CK
HA
HC
HK
KA
KC
KH
Explanation
All possible size 2 permutations of the string HACK are printed in lexicographic sorted order.
