i did a dry run on this code and didnt find the significance of mk array ... so i did remove it from the code .. and the code works fine .. i more thing ... the code repeats same palindromes as in incase of ABA baa is coming twice.. correct me if i am wrong ... On Fri, Jul 29, 2011 at 10:47 AM,

i more thing ... the code repeats same palindromes as in incase of ABA baa is coming twice.. Put back mk array in place and baa won't be repeated. The idea is that out of all available options for filling a particular position in our partial solution at each round of backtracking we choose for

The seen array filters out the characters which are available for filling a particular position. The mk array makes sure that we choose only one of the repeated characters. for example, if the array is aba if mk array is there backtracking will try like String : a _ _ or b _ _

What my recursive solution does is that, For all elements that can be used at position *k*, fix that element at position *k* and then permute the rest of the elements. So if are two same elements which can be used at position *k* we must choose only one of it to avoid repeated permutations. Array

@amit:i am not clear about the code.Maybe could you take your example string aabc and explain a few steps that happen from your code??.The array mk is locally created for each function call and so I do not get how it keeps track of elements tried cos each time it is a new array. On Fri, Jul 29,
