There are four numbers , a, b, c, d
How can find the permutations of these 4 numbers ? ( There are 24 puermutations total.)
Thanks.
How do you want the output?
The function Call ALLPERM will do what you want
data _null_;
/* replace _null_ with the name of a dataset if you want the results in a dataset*/
array x [4] (23 15 9 76);
n=dim(x);
nfact=fact(n);
do i=1 to nfact;
call allperm(i, of x[*]);
put i 5. +2 x[*];
/* put an output statement here if you want a data set*/
end;
run;
