The first permutation makes the second seem very probable, although I cannot as yet conceive a means of realizing it.
In forming the foregoing theories their authors have been largely controlled by the alleged fact of the substitution and permutation of the Swastika sign on various objects with recognized symbols of these different deities.
Swastika therewith, and that the permutation and replacing of these signs by the Swastika is evidence that the Swastika represented the sun.
The animate forms in these examples will be recognized, as exhibiting a further extension of the rule, mentioned in the preceding chapter, by which substantives are formed from the indicative of the verb by a permutation of the vowels.
In less technical language we may say that permutation is expressing negatively what was expressed affirmatively and vice versâ.
Besides these there are certain compound forms, in which permutation is combined with conversion.
Here permutation comes to our aid; while conversion by negation enables us to convert the A proposition, without loss of quantity, and to elicit the precise conclusion we require out of the reduct of Boltardo.
All these inferences agree in the essential feature of combining permutation with conversion, and should therefore be classed under a common name.
Accordingly, before the introduction ofpermutation into the scheme of logic, it was necessary to have recourse to some other expedient, in order to demonstrate the validity of these two moods.
The term conversion by negation has been arbitrarily limited to the exact inferential procedure of permutation followed by simple conversion.
Indeed, when once it was seen that the law prevailed in a few of the lower powers, its identity with the law of permutation would at once suggest the considerations which prove it to obtain universally.
We may thus select the four coins in one hundred ways, and the four removed may be arranged by permutation in twenty-four ways.
He says that every possible permutation of the four bells must be rung once, and once only.
Now in the grammar of languages there is often a change, or a permutation of letters: e.
The following are instances of the permutation of letters.
This indicates the distinction between the permutation of letters and the transition of letters.
The first week of creation, as it were, afforded two signal examples of this wise permutation of divine justice, angels cast out of heaven, and man out of paradise, a high and wretched aim at wisdom brought both as low as hell.
This permutationis made very convenient by the sentences being printed in sections which may be moved about and combined at will.
Nevertheless, it is much easier to give the child a vivid impression of them by the permutation of parts than by explanation.
The permutation develops a strong rhetorical flavor, of which the child will become conscious later in his studies on poetic inversions.
Permutation gives the following results: Make a broad very mark on the blackboard.
But what really makes this exercise in analysis so interesting is the teacher's repeated permutation of the different cards.
The combinations of flags—or to use the right word, permutation, which means the number of different arrangements of a few flags that are possible—are numerous and each permutation represents some word or a sea-term.
The economic reform wrought is largely of the nature of a permutation in the methods of conspicuous waste.
Such a permutation could be without injury to the developmental product only if one nucleus had the same qualities as another; that is to say, only if all the nuclei had arisen from the nucleus of the fertilized egg by doubling division.
From the results of such mental operations, additional new truths are evolved by the more complex process of analysis, combination and permutation of ideas.
It may be regarded as an operation carried out on the symbols of the operations, being indeed a permutation performed on these symbols.
If the letters in the tableau are regarded as mere symbols, the operation of replacing each symbol in the first line by the symbol which stands under it in the pth line is a permutation performed on the set of N symbols.
It is called imprimitive or primitive according as the symbols can or cannot be arranged in sets, such that every permutation of the group changes the symbols of any one set either among themselves or into the symbols of another set.
Moreover, if SpSq = Sr, then the result of carrying out in succession the permutations which correspond to the pth and qth lines gives the permutation which corresponds to the rth line.
Hence, to each operation S of the group will correspond a permutation performed on the symbols of the m sets, and to the product of two operations corresponds the product of the two analogous permutations.
Thus to the N lines of the tableau there corresponds a set of N permutations performed on the N symbols, which includes the identical permutation that leaves each unchanged.
At each stroke the cards undergo a permutation (analogous to that studied in the theory of substitutions).
Most important advances have been made during the century in Combination or Permutation Locks and Time Locks.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "permutation" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
