Listed above are &nbsp; all-but-one &nbsp; of the permutations of the symbols &nbsp; '''A''', &nbsp; '''B''', &nbsp; '''C''', &nbsp; and &nbsp; '''D''', &nbsp; ''except'' &nbsp; for one permutation that's &nbsp; ''not'' &nbsp; listed.
 
 
;Task:
Find that missing permutation.
 
 
;Methods:
* Obvious method:
enumerate all permutations of '''A''', '''B''', '''C''', and '''D''',
and then look for the missing permutation.
 
* alternate method:
Hint: if all permutations were shown above, how many
times would '''A''' appear in each position?
What is the ''parity'' of this number?
 
* another alternate method:
Hint: if you add up the letter values of each column,
does a missing letter '''A''', '''B''', '''C''', and '''D''' from each
column cause the total value for each column to be unique?

This is a function that takes a matrix where the rows are permutations,
and returns the missing permutation. It works by returning, for each column,
the letter that occurs least.

The approach above generates a full set of permutations and calculates the difference. Changing the two commented lines to the three below will calculate on the fly and would be more efficient for larger data sets.
 
<langsyntaxhighlight Iconlang="icon">every x := permutes("ABCD") do # generate all permutations
if member(givens,x) then delete(givens,x) # remove givens as they are generated
else insert(givens,x) # add back any not given</langsyntaxhighlight>
 
A still simpler, and more efficient, version is:

'''Solution:'''
<langsyntaxhighlight Jlang="j">permutations=: A.~ i.@!@#
missingPerms=: -.~ permutations @ {.</langsyntaxhighlight>
'''Use:'''
<pre>data=: >;: 'ABCD CABD ACDB DACB BCDA ACBD ADCB CDAB DABC BCAD CADB CDBA'
Line 380 ⟶ 1,620:
Or the above could be a single definition that works the same way:
 
<langsyntaxhighlight Jlang="j">missingPerms=: -.~ (A.~ i.@!@#) @ {. </langsyntaxhighlight>
 
Or the equivalent explicit (cf. tacit above) definition:
<langsyntaxhighlight Jlang="j">missingPerms=: monad define
item=. {. y
y -.~ item A.~ i.! #item
)</langsyntaxhighlight>
 
Or, the solution could be obtained without defining an independent program:
 
<langsyntaxhighlight Jlang="j"> data -.~ 'ABCD' A.~ i.!4
DBAC</langsyntaxhighlight>
 
Here, <code>'ABCD'</code> represents the values being permuted (their order does not matter), and <code>4</code> is how many of them we have.
Line 397 ⟶ 1,637:
Yet another alternative expression, which uses parentheses instead of the [http://www.jsoftware.com/help/dictionary/d220v.htm passive operator] (<code>~</code>), would be:
 
<langsyntaxhighlight Jlang="j"> ((i.!4) A. 'ABCD') -. data
DBAC</langsyntaxhighlight>
 
Of course the task suggests that the missing permutation can be found without generating all permutations. And of course that is doable:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="j"> 'ABCD'{~,I.@(= <./)@(#/.~)@('ABCD' , ])"1 |:perms
DBAC</syntaxhighlight>
 
However, that's actually a false economy - not only does this approach take more code to implement (at least, in J) but we are already dealing with a data structure of approximately the size of all permutations. So what is being saved by this supposedly "more efficient" approach? Not much... (Still, perhaps this exercise is useful as an illustration of some kind of advertising concept?)
 
We could use parity, as suggested in the task hints:
<syntaxhighlight lang="j"> ,(~.#~2|(#/.~))"1|:data
DBAC</syntaxhighlight>
 
We could use arithmetic, as suggested in the task hints:
<syntaxhighlight lang="j"> ({.data){~|(->./)+/({.i.])data
DBAC</syntaxhighlight>

The following assumes that a file, Find_the_missing_permutation.txt,
has the text exactly as presented in the task description.
 
To find the missing permutation, we can for simplicity invoke jq twice:
jq -R . Find_the_missing_permutation.txt | jq -s -f Find_the_missing_permutation.jq
 
The first invocation simply converts the raw text into a stream of JSON strings; these
are then processed by the following program, which implements the parity-based approach.
 
The program will handle permutations of any set of uppercase letters. The letters need not be consecutive.
Note that the following encoding of letters is used: A => 0, B => 1, ....

(which is the same as in [[Matrix_Transpose#jq]]) may be omitted.

# corresponding to the occurrences in any one position of the
# letters in the list of permutations.
# Output: a tally in the form of an array recording in position i the
# parity of the number of occurrences of the letter corresponding to i.
# Example: given [0,1,0,1,2], the array of counts of 0, 1, and 2 is [2, 2, 1],
# and thus the final result is [0, 0, 1].

Alternate method : if we had all permutations,
each letter would appear an even number of times at each position.
Since there is only one permutation missing,
we can find where each letter goes by looking at the parity
of the number of occurences of each letter.

<lang perl6># The givens from Rosetta Code:
Here are several approaches, including constraint modelling, sets (ordset), and permutations.
my @givens = "ABCD", "CABD", "ACDB", "DACB", "BCDA", "ACBD", "ADCB", "CDAB", "DABC", "BCAD", "CADB", "CDBA", "CBAD", "ABDC", "ADBC", "BDCA", "DCBA", "BACD", "BADC", "BDAC", "CBDA", "DBCA", "DCAB";
 
All assume that the variables P1 and/or Perms has been defined:
# Get all the unique permutations of ABCD
<syntaxhighlight lang="picat"> P1 = ["ABCD","CABD","ACDB","DACB","BCDA","ACBD",
my @letters = <A B C D>;
"ADCB","CDAB","DABC","BCAD","CADB","CDBA",
my @perms = (@letters X~ @letters X~ @letters X~ @letters).grep: {
"CBAD","ABDC","ADBC","BDCA","DCBA","BACD",
.chars == .split('').uniq.elems
"BADC","BDAC","CBDA","DBCA","DCAB"],
};
Perms = permutations("ABCD"),
% ...
</syntaxhighlight>
 
===Very imperative===
# Print out the missing value:
<syntaxhighlight lang="picat"> % ...
for @perms {
Missing = _,
.say if $_ eq none(@givens);
foreach(P in Perms, Missing = _)
}</lang>
Found = false,
foreach(T in P1)
if P == T then
Found := true
end
end,
if not Found then
Missing := P
end
end,
println(missing1=Missing).</syntaxhighlight>
 
===Somewhat less imperative===
<syntaxhighlight lang="picat"> % ...
Missing2 = _,
foreach(P in Perms, Missing2 = _)
if not member(P,P1) then
Missing2 := P
end
end,
println(missing2=Missing2).</syntaxhighlight>
 
===Using findall===
<syntaxhighlight lang="picat"> % ...
println(missing3=difference(Perms,P1)).
 
difference(Xs,Ys) = findall(X,(member(X,Xs),not(member(X,Ys)))).</syntaxhighlight>
 
===findall approach as a one-liner===
<syntaxhighlight lang="picat"> % ...
println(missing4=findall(X,(member(X,Perms),not(member(X,P1))))).</syntaxhighlight>
 
===Using ordsets===
The module <code>ordsets</code> must be imported,
<syntaxhighlight lang="picat">import ordsets.
% ...
println(missing5=subtract(new_ordset(Perms),new_ordset(P1))).</syntaxhighlight>
 
===List comprehension===
List comprehension with <code>membchk/1</code> for the check)
<syntaxhighlight lang="picat"> % ...
println(missing6=[P:P in Perms,not membchk(P,P1)])</syntaxhighlight>
 
===Using maps===
<syntaxhighlight lang="picat"> % ...
Map = new_map(),
foreach(P in P1) Map.put(P,1) end,
println(missing7=[P: P in Perms, not Map.has_key(P)]).</syntaxhighlight>
 
==="Merge sort" variants===
"Merge sort" variants, using sorted lists. <code>zip/2</code> requires that the length of the two lists are the same, hence the "dummy".
<syntaxhighlight lang="picat"> % ...
PermsSorted = Perms.sort(),
P1Sorted = P1.sort(),
Found2 = false,
foreach({P,PP} in zip(PermsSorted,P1Sorted ++ ["DUMMY"]), Found2 = false)
if P != PP then
println(missing8=P),
Found2 := true
end
end,
 
A = [cond(P == PP,1,0) : {P,PP} in zip(PermsSorted,P1Sorted ++ ["DUMMY"])],

===Python:Counting lowest frequency character at each position===
Here is a solution that is more in the spirit of the challenge,
i.e. it never needs to generate the full set of expected permutations.
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="python">
def missing_permutation(arr):
"Find the missing permutation in an array of N! - 1 permutations."
# We won't validate every precondition, but we do have some basic
# guards.
if len(arr) == 0: raise Exception("Need more data")
if len(arr) == 1:
return [arr[0][1] + arr[0][0]]
# Now we know that for each position in the string, elements should appear
# an even number of times (N-1 >= 2). We can use a set to detect the element appearing
# an odd number of times. Detect odd occurrences by toggling admission/expulsion
# to and from the set for each value encountered. At the end of each pass one element
# will remain in the set.
missing_permutation = ''
for pos in range(len(arr[0])):
s = set()
for permutation in arr:
c = permutation[pos]
if c in s:
s.remove(c)
else:
s.add(c)

CBAD ABDC ADBC BDCA DCBA BACD BADC BDAC CBDA DBCA DCAB'''.split()
print missing_permutation(given)
</syntaxhighlight>
 
===Python:Counting lowest frequency character at each position: functional===
Uses the same method as explained directly above,
but calculated in a more functional manner:
<syntaxhighlight lang="python">>>> from collections import Counter
>>> given = '''ABCD CABD ACDB DACB BCDA ACBD ADCB CDAB DABC BCAD CADB CDBA
CBAD ABDC ADBC BDCA DCBA BACD BADC BDAC CBDA DBCA DCAB'''.split()
>>> ''.join(Counter(x).most_common()[-1][0] for x in zip(*given))
'DBAC'
>>> </syntaxhighlight>
 
;Explanation
It is rather obfuscated, but can be explained
by showing these intermediate results and noting
that <code>zip(*x)</code> transposes x;
and that at the end of the list
created by the call to <code>most_common()</code>
is the least common character.
<syntaxhighlight lang="python">>>> from pprint import pprint as pp
>>> pp(list(zip(*given)), width=120)
[('A', 'C', 'A', 'D', 'B', 'A', 'A', 'C', 'D', 'B', 'C', 'C', 'C', 'A', 'A', 'B', 'D', 'B', 'B', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'D'),
