60. Permutation Sequence

Difficulty Topics

Description

The set [1, 2, 3, ..., n] contains a total of n! unique permutations.

By listing and labeling all of the permutations in order, we get the following sequence for n = 3:

  1. "123"
  2. "132"
  3. "213"
  4. "231"
  5. "312"
  6. "321"

Given n and k, return the kth permutation sequence.

 

Example 1:

Input: n = 3, k = 3
Output: "213"

Example 2:

Input: n = 4, k = 9
Output: "2314"

Example 3:

Input: n = 3, k = 1
Output: "123"

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= n <= 9
  • 1 <= k <= n!
