That's a mighty good permutation algorithm you're using. I'm curious as to where you came across it. (A few years ago I did a fair bit of investigation into permutation generation, and this algorithm was the fastest pure-Perl one I could find by quite a margin. Your code looks remarkably similar to mine!)
That was a subroutine I had found on the web a while ago when I was looking for how to do fast permutations. I didn't really remember exactly where I got it, (I had stored it away in my folder of cool and interesting perl stuff,) but in looking at your web page, there is little doubt that it was from there.
Sorry for not attributing it correctly, and thank you for making it available.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
