    Hi, I've an assignment to make a program that should generate all the permutations of a string one by one. I know many algorithm of generating permutations using recursion, but question has asked to generate it one by one. So deliverable should contain a class called "PermutationIterator" which should have a method "hasNextPermutation" and "nextPermutation". They have given one hint, make a "tailIterator" object of type "PermutationIterator" inside a "PermutationIterator" class (like a node of LinkedList) and then do some funny things with it. I can't figure out where should I start....any help would be appreciated. Note: You can't generate all permutations at one time, then store it into an array and then call each of them one by one. Please don not suggest this way. Thank you Shivam Kalra

      Take a look here[^] for some sample code that will help you.

      I must get a clever new signature for 2011.
