Random Permutation

This module provides a class RandomPermutation that can be used to generate a random permutation of a given length in O(1) time and space.

Installation

To install the module, run:

pip install random_permutation

Usage

To use the RandomPermutation class, import it from the random_permutation module:

from random_permutation import RandomPermutation

n = 2**20
p = RandomPermutation(n)
for x in p:
  print(x)
# or
for i in range(n):
  print(p[i])

This will output the elements of the RandomPermutation object. You can use the seed parameter to vary the permutations and the num_ciphers parameter to control the number of ciphers used.

Testing

To run the unit tests for the RandomPermutation class, run:

python -m unittest tests.test_permutation
