find the permutation function of a sorting
Thanks, David. I got the answer from the web. Is there any easy way to permute a set (e.g., a set of characters) by the permutation it returns? Thanks,
x <- c(10,7,4,3,8,2) sort(x, index.return=TRUE)
$x [1] 2 3 4 7 8 10 $ix [1] 6 4 3 2 5 1 2018-05-23 10:49 GMT+08:00 David Winsemius <dwinsemius at comcast.net>:

sort(c("bc","ac","dd"))
[1] "ac" "bc" "dd"
I think you are asking for the `order` function.
I try to find it in the permutations/permute package, but I can't find
it
