这是我的代码，它是这个例子的修改版本

库:

class NumPermExample
{
    // print N! permutation of the characters of the string s (in order)
    public  static void perm1(String s, ArrayList<String> perm)
    {
        perm1("", s);
    }

    private static void perm1(String prefix, String s, ArrayList<String> perm)
    {
        int N = s.length();
        if (N == 0)
        {
            System.out.println(prefix);
            perm.add(prefix);
        }
        else
        {
            for (int i = 0; i < N; i++)
                perm1(prefix + s.charAt(i), s.substring(0, i)
                    + s.substring(i+1, N));
        }

    }

    // print N! permutation of the elements of array a (not in order)
    public static void perm2(String s, ArrayList<String> perm)
    {
       int N = s.length();
       char[] a = new char[N];
       for (int i = 0; i < N; i++)
           a[i] = s.charAt(i);
       perm2(a, N);
    }

    private static void perm2(char[] a, int n, ArrayList<String> perm)
    {
        if (n == 1)
        {
            System.out.println(a);
            perm.add(new String(a));
            return;
        }

        for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
        {
            swap(a, i, n-1);
            perm2(a, n-1);
            swap(a, i, n-1);
        }
    }  

    // swap the characters at indices i and j
    private static void swap(char[] a, int i, int j)
    {
        char c;
        c = a[i]; a[i] = a[j]; a[j] = c;
    }

    // next higher permutation
    public static int nextPermutation (int number)
    {
        ArrayList<String> perm = new ArrayList<String>();

        String cur = ""+number;

        int nextPerm = 0;

        perm1(cur, perm);

        for (String s : perm)
        {
            if (Integer.parseInt(s) > number
                        && (nextPerm == 0 ||
                            Integer.parseInt(s) < nextPerm))
            {
                nextPerm = Integer.parseInt(s);
            }
        }

            return nextPerm;
    }
}

测试:

public static void main(String[] args) 
{
    int a = 38276;

    int b = NumPermExample.nextPermutation(a);

    System.out.println("a: "+a+", b: "+b);
}

我很确定你的面试官是想委婉地让你说出这样的话:

local number = 564321;

function split(str)
    local t = {};
    for i = 1, string.len(str) do
        table.insert(t, str.sub(str,i,i));
    end
    return t;
end

local res = number;
local i = 1;
while number >= res do
    local t = split(tostring(res));
    if i == 1 then
        i = #t;
    end
    t[i], t[i-1] = t[i-1], t[i];
    i = i - 1;
    res = tonumber(table.concat(t));
end

print(res);

不一定是最有效或最优雅的解决方案，但它在两个循环中解决了所提供的示例，并像他建议的那样一次交换一个数字。

你的想法

我想从找到第一个比个位小的数字的下标开始。然后我将旋转子集中的最后一个数字，这样它是由相同的数字组成的下一个最大的数字，但卡住了。

其实还不错。您不仅要考虑最后一位数字，还要考虑所有比当前考虑的不那么重要的数字。在此之前，我们有一个单调的数字序列，即最右边的数字比它右边的邻居小。把

1234675
    ^

下一个有相同数字的大数是

1234756

将找到的数字交换为最后一位数字(考虑的数字中最小的数字)，其余数字按递增顺序排列。

这是我在Ruby中的实现:

def foo num  
  num = num.to_s.chars.map(&:to_i)
  return num.join.to_i if num.size < 2
  for left in (num.size-2).downto(0) do
    for right in (num.size-1).downto(left+1) do
      if num[right]>num[left]
        num[left],num[right] = num[right],num[left]        
        return (num[0..left] + num[left+1..num.size-1].sort).join.to_i
      end
    end
  end
  return num.join.to_i
end

p foo 38276 
#will print: 38627

只是使用python的另一个解决方案:

def PermutationStep(num):
    if sorted(list(str(num)), reverse=True) == list(str(num)):
        return -1
    ls = list(str(num))
    n = 0
    inx = 0
    for ind, i in enumerate(ls[::-1]):
        if i < n:
            n = i
            inx = -(ind + 1)
            break
        n = i
    ls[inx], ls[inx + 1] = ls[inx + 1], ls[inx]

    nl = ls[inx::-1][::-1]
    ln = sorted(ls[inx+1:])
    return ''.join(nl) + ''.join(ln)

print PermutationStep(23514)

输出:

23541

非常简单的实现使用Javascript，下一个最高的数字与相同的数字

/*
Algorithm applied
I) Traverse the given number from rightmost digit, keep traversing till you find a digit which is smaller than the previously traversed digit. For example, if the input number is “534976”, we stop at 4 because 4 is smaller than next digit 9. If we do not find such a digit, then output is “Not Possible”.

II) Now search the right side of above found digit ‘d’ for the smallest digit greater than ‘d’. For “534976″, the right side of 4 contains “976”. The smallest digit greater than 4 is 6.

III) Swap the above found two digits, we get 536974 in above example.

IV) Now sort all digits from position next to ‘d’ to the end of number. The number that we get after sorting is the output. For above example, we sort digits in bold 536974. We get “536479” which is the next greater number for input 534976.

  let i;
  //breaking down a digit into arrays of string and then converting back that array to number array
  let arr1=arr.toString().split('').map(Number) ;

     A greater number that is of course greater than that smaller number but smaller than the first number we found.
     Why are doing this? Because that is an algorithm to find next higher number with same digits.

        {// we assign that other found number here and replace it with the one we found before

    //returning array 
    //too many functions applied sounds complicated right but no, here is the  trick
    //return arr first then apply each function one by one to see output and then further another func to that output to match your needs
    // so here after swapping , 4th part of alogorithm is to sort the array right after the 1st small num we found
    // to do that first we simple take part of array, we splice it and then we apply sort fucntion, then check output (to check outputs, pls use chrome dev console)
    //and then  simply the rest concat and join to main one digit again.
     return arr1.concat((arr1.splice(i,arr1.length)).sort(function(a, b){return a-b})).join('');



    // Sorry to make it too long but its fun explaining things in much easier ways as much as possible!!
