title: Superpermutation
text: In combinatorial mathematics, a superpermutation on n symbols is a string that contains each permutation of n symbols as a substring. While trivial superpermutations can simply be made up of every permutation concatenated together, superpermutations can also be shorter because overlap is allowed. For instance, in the case of n = 2, the superpermutation 1221 contains all possible permutations, but the shorter string 121 also contains both permutations. It has been shown that for 1 ≤ n ≤ 5, the sm
