So I hoped to figure out the code that would finish this:
public List<List<Integer>> create4(List<Integer> dice) {
//unknown code
return listOf4s;
}
So dice would always be a List of 5 Integers,
from the 5 Integers I would like to create a List every possible permutation using only 4 numbers.
I hope I have made this clear enough.
I have searched around but have not quite seen anything I could use. Any help would be great!
There is a lot of example code on the web that you can repurpose for your needs. For example, have a look at this permutation generator article to get started.
I have not tried this out, but hopefully this helps.
public List<List<Integer>> createN(List<Integer> dice) {
if (dice.size() == 1) {
List<List<Integer>> permutations = new ArrayList<List<Integer>>();
permutations.add(dice);
return permutations;
}
else {
List<List<Integer>> permuations = new ArrayList<List<Integer>>();
for (int i=0;i<dice.size();i++) {
List<Integer> remainingElementsInPermutationSet = new ArrayList<Integer>();
Integer firstElementInPermutationSet = null;
for (int j=0;j<dice.size();j++) {
if (i==j) {
firstElementInPermutationSet = dice.get(j);
}
else {
remainingElementsInPermutationSet.add(dice.get(j));
}
}
List<List<Integer>> remainderPermutations = createN(remainingElementsInPermutationSet);
for (List<Integer> permutationRemainer : remainderPermutations) {
List<Integer> permutation = new ArrayList<Integer>();
permutation.add(firstElementInPermutationSet);
permutation.addAll(permutationRemainer);
permuations.add(permutation);
}
}
return permutations:
}
}
I tend to like shorter code ;)
public List<List<Integer>> create4(List<Integer> dice) {
List<List<Integer>> listOf4s = new ArrayList<List<Integer>>();
for(Integer num : dice) {
List<Integer> dice2 = new ArrayList<Integer>(dice);
dices2.remove(num);
listOf4s.add(dices2);
}
return listOf4s;
}
This is what I did using @btreat 's idea and it worked great.
public List<List<Integer>> create4(List<Integer> dice) {
List<List<Integer>> permutations = new ArrayList<List<Integer>>();
for(int i = 0; i < dice.size(); i++) {
List<Integer> includedPermutation = new ArrayList<Integer>();
for(int j = 0; j < dice.size(); j++) {
if(i!=j) {
includedPermutation.add(dice.get(j));
}
}
permutations.add(includedPermutation);
}
return permutations;
}
