Hiii!! I have some idea about the solution. Please notify me if i am wrong....
a= [ 4,3,5 ] and b= [ 3,5,4 ] diff=0; for (i=0; i<n;i++) { diff= diff+a[i]-b[i]; } if diff == 0 print: permutation else print: not permutation On 20 May 2012 07:2 0, Dave <dave_and_da...@juno.com> wrote: > @Harshit: These are a few unanswered questions that came to mind when I > read your solution attempt: What do you do with negative elements?
