Domain: Permutation statistics

Details
  • Defined over Permutation as an expression in _x, evaluated by compute-engine — the definition IS the implementation.
  • Takes a Permutation and nothing else — it reads values against their positions, or walks the orbits, so it needs the bijection. Applying it to a bare list is a type error, not a wrong answer.

Definition

Epsil, as the implementation runs it.

on Permutation, over _x

Min(Join(
          Filter(Range(1, Length(_x), 1), Function(_x[i] == i, i)),
          [Length(_x) + 1],
        ))
