This iterator creates permutations of an input collection, using the
Steinhaus-Johnson-Trotter algorithm (also called plain changes).
The iterator will return exactly n! permutations of the input collection. The remove()
operation is not supported, and will throw an UnsupportedOperationException
.
NOTE: in case an empty collection is provided, the iterator will
return exactly one empty list as result, as 0! = 1.
Type parameters: - <E> – the type of the objects being permuted
Since: 4.0
