Detailed Description

Represents a permutation of {0,1,2}.

These objects are small enough to pass about by value instead of by reference. Moreover, they are extremely fast to work with.

Each permutation has an internal code, and this code is sufficient to reconstruct the permutation. Thus the internal code may be a useful means for passing permutation objects to and from the engine.

The internal code is an integer between 0 and 5 inclusive, representing the index of the permutation in the array NPerm3::S3.

This class is faster and sleeker than related classes such as NPerm4. On the other hand, this class does not offer quite as rich an interface.

Test:
Exhaustively tested in the test suite.

Member Data Documentation

const int regina::NPerm3::invS3[6] [static]

Contains the inverses of the permutations in the array S3.

Specifically, the inverse of permutation S3[i] is the permutation S3[ invS3[i] ].

const NPerm3 regina::NPerm3::orderedS3[6] [static]

Contains all possible permutations of three elements in lexicographical order.

const NPerm3 regina::NPerm3::S3[6] [static]

Contains all possible permutations of three elements.

The permutations with even indices in the array are the even permutations, and those with odd indices in the array are the odd permutations.

This array contains the same permutations in the same order as the corresponding array NPerm4::S3 (though of course this array stores NPerm3 objects instead of NPerm4 objects).

Note that these permutations are not necessarily in lexicographical order.
