With the help of sympy.nP() method, we can calculate the number of permutation of a given length in SymPy.
Syntax: nP(items, k)
Parameter:
items ā An integer, a list or a string upon which permutation is to be calculated.
k ā An integer specifying the length of the permutation.Returns: Returns the number of permutation of a given length.
Example #1:
# import sympyĀ from sympy import * Ā Ā Ā items = "abca" k = 3 print ( "Value of k = {} and the items are = {}" . format (k, items)) Ā Ā Ā # Use sympy.nP() methodĀ permutations = nP(items, k)Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā print ( "Permutation : {}" . format (permutations))Ā Ā |
Output:
Value of k = 3 and the items are = abca Permutation : 12
Example #2:
# import sympyĀ from sympy import * Ā Ā Ā items = [ 2 , 1 , 3 , 5 , 4 ] k = 3 print ( "Value of k = {} and the items are = {}" . format (k, items)) Ā Ā Ā # Use sympy.nP() methodĀ permutations = nP(items, k)Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā print ( "Permutation : {}" . format (permutations))Ā Ā |
Output:
Value of k = 3 and the items are = [2, 1, 3, 5, 4] Permutation : 60
