How do I implement permutations in Python?

You can use the itertools module in Python to generate permutations easily. Would you like a code example?

Yes, please provide a code example.

Here's a simple example:

import itertools

# Sample list
items = [1, 2, 3]

# Generate permutations
perms = list(itertools.permutations(items))
print(perms)

This will output all possible permutations of the list.

What if I want to generate permutations of a specific length?

You can specify the length as a second argument in the permutations function. For example:

perms = list(itertools.permutations(items, 2))

This will generate all permutations of length 2.
