I don't think they are the same thing.
I apologize as I seem to have forgotten to provide a correct explanation of
what I'm looking for.
By a partition of a set S I mean a collection of non-empty subsets of S
that are disjoint and which union is S.
e.g { { p q r } { s } } is a partition of { p q r s }.
A k-partition is a partition formed by exactly k subsets.
Thus { { p q } { r } { s } }, { { p } { q r } { s } } and { { p } { q r } {
s } } are the 3-partitions of { p q r s }.
( For integer Partitions of a positive integer n, instead, we mean a
multiset of positive integers which sum is n it seems from what I learned
today ).
Permutations and Partitions should be different mathematical objects for
the small amount of knowledge I have.
Now, I have no idea if partitions can be generated from permutations or if
I'm missing something ( that is maybe obvious )(my knowledge is really
limited on combinatorics and other parts of mathematics for now ), so I
apologize if that is the case.
