}A new algorithm for generating permutations is presented, that generates the next permutation by reversing a certain suffix of its predecessor. The average size of this suffix is less thane ≅ 2.8. It is shown how to find the position of a given permutation and how to construct the permutation of a given position, where the position refers to the order in which the permutations are generated, and is also new.
