EXE downloads and instructions for selected models

Permutations  

Follow the instructions below to unzip the files and execute Permuations.EXE for generating desired sequences:

1. Click Permutations link above page and download the zipped Permutations.EXE file.

2. Double-click the downloaded file. The zip file contains full path info, so just unzip it without changing the c:\ in the path text box.

3. Bring c:\ORMSware\Tests\Results6.TXT into UltraEdit or any editor. It's an input/output data file.

4. Change the parameter to whatever you like and save the file.

5. Double-click c:\ORMSware\Tests\Permutations.EXE in Windows Explorer.

6. Switch back to (or reload into editor) c:\ORMSware\Tests\Results6.TXT to see the results.

If the parameter you enter is large, you may hit the maximum events limit in c:\OMRSware\ProgramFiles\Nmod.CFG.htm. It is an Excel file, so it has to be opened with Excel to make changes. Change events limit to 0 to remove the limit, or increase it to some larger number. In the copy in the zip file the limit is set to 10,000 events. If you remove the limit, it will be a good idea to turn off Trace, too, to avoid a large trace file in case you decide to try a large number for the parameter. 

In case you are curious about the model, you can review c:\ORMSware\Tests\Permutations.NET, ADD and VSD files. If you do not have Visio, you can view the model's network by clicking here.

If you want additional mental exercise, you may want to think about or actually try coding the algorithm in whatever tool you may be inclined to use to do something like this. It is always interesting to compare notes.
