%N Decimal representation of permutations of lengths 1, 2, 3, ...

%C One way to generate the permutations is by using the factorial base (not to be confused with the Lehmer code).

%C Here is a detailed example showing how to compute a(2982).

%C We have i = 2982 = (4, 0, 4, 1, 0, 0, 0) in the factorial base.

%C So the initial vector "0" is (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7), using seven active digits.

%C The factorial base vector is reversed, giving (0, 0, 0, 1, 4, 0, 4).

%C The instructions are to read from the factorial base vector, producing rotations to the right by as many steps as the column says, in the following order:

%C Start on the right; on the vector "0", a rotation of 4 units is made

%C (0, 0, 0, 1, 4, 0, [4])

%C (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)

%C The result is:

%C (4, 5, 6, 7, 1, 2, 3)

%C The 3 is retained, one column is advanced.

%C Next a rotation of 0 units is made (the null rotation)

%C (0, 0, 0, 1, 4, [0], 4)

%C (4, 5, 6, 7, 1, 2, 3)

%C The result is:

%C (4, 5, 6, 7, 1, 2, 3)

%C The 2 is retained, one column is advanced.

%C Now a rotation of 4 units is made

%C (0, 0, 0, 1, [4], 0, 4)

%C (4, 5, 6, 7, 1, 2, 3)

%C The result is:

%C (5, 6, 7, 1, 4, 2, 3)

%C The 4 is retained, one column is advanced.

%C Now a rotation of 1 units is made

%C (0, 0, 0, [1], 4, 0, 4)

%C (5, 6, 7, 1, 4, 2, 3)

%C The result is:

%C (1, 5, 6, 7, 4, 2, 3)

%C The 7 is retained, one column is advanced.

%C Now 3 null rotations are made.

%C All remaining values are retained: 6, 5, and 1

%C Thus 2982 represents the permutation: (1, 5, 6, 7, 4, 2, 3)

%C Or a(2982) = 1567423.

%e The sequence may be regarded as a triangle, where each row consists of permutations of N terms; i.e., we have

%e 1/,2,1/,3,1,2;1,3,2;2,3,1;3,2,1/4,1,2,3;1,4,2,3;2,4,1,3;...

%e Append to each an infinite number of fixed terms and we get a list of rearrangements of the natural numbers, but with only a finite number of terms permuted:

%e 1/2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,...

%e 2,1/3,4,5,6,7,8,9,...

%e 3,1,2/4,5,6,7,8,9,...

%e 1,3,2/4,5,6,7,8,9,...

%e 2,3,1/4,5,6,7,8,9,...

%e 3,2,1/4,5,6,7,8,9,...

%e 4,1,2,3/5,6,7,8,9,...

%e 1,4,2,3/5,6,7,8,9,...

%e 2,4,1,3/5,6,7,8,9,...

%e Alternatively, if we take only the first n terms of each such infinite row, then the first n! rows give all permutations of the elements 0,1,2,...,n-1.
