(Greetings from The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences!)
A048200 Minimal length pair-exchange / set-rotate sequence to reverse n distinct ordered elements. 2
0, 1, 2, 4, 10, 15, 23, 32, 42, 55 (list; graph; refs; listen; history; internal format)
OFFSET

1,3

COMMENTS

"Rotate" is always a left-rotate (moves leftmost element to the right end) and "Exchange" is always a pair-exchange of the two leftmost elements.

EXAMPLE

a(4) = 4 since "xrrx" is the shortest sequence reversing "ABCD". Explicitly, (begin) ABCD, (x)-> BACD, (r)-> ACDB, (r) -> CDBA, (x)-> DCBA.
