Abstract: This note discusses sufficient conditions for a function of permutations ( j 1 , …, j n ) of the integers 1, 2, …, n to have a minimum at the permutation ( j * 1 , …, j * n ) and derives a solution algorithm that is equivalent to the known solution algorithm for special cases involving sequential search and testing.
