Problem 24 : Lexicographic permutations

A permutation is an ordered arrangement of objects. For example, 3124 is one possible permutation of the digits 1, 2, 3 and 4. If all of the permutations are listed numerically or alphabetically, we call it lexicographic order. The lexicographic permutations of 0, 1 and 2 are:

012 021 102 120 201 210

What is the millionth lexicographic permutation of the digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9?

C++ source code

#include <iostream> 
#include <string>
#include <cassert>    // assert()
#include <algorithm>  // next_permutation()

using namespace std;

class PE0024
{
public:
    string findNextPermutation(const string& digitsString, int SeqNo); 
};
    
string PE0024::findNextPermutation(const string& digitsString, int SeqNo)
{
    int num = 0;
    string digits;
    
    digits.assign(digitsString.begin(), digitsString.end());

    while(true == next_permutation(digits.begin(), digits.end()))
    {
        num++;
        if (num == SeqNo-1)
        {
            break;
        }
    }
    return digits; 
}

int main() 
{         
    PE0024 pe0024;

    string digitsString = "012";    
    assert(pe0024.findNextPermutation(digitsString, 3) == "102");

    digitsString = "0123456789";
    int sequenceNo = 1000000; // millionth   

    cout << "The millionth lexicographic permutation of the digits " ;
    cout << "0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and 9 is " ;
    cout << pe0024.findNextPermutation(digitsString,sequenceNo) << endl;

    return 0; 
}
