Cyclic permutation of integer
Okay kiddo, so imagine you have five toys lined up in a row: a teddy bear, a ball, a doll, a car, and a book.
Now imagine you want to play a game where you need to move the toys around, but they always have to stay in the same order.
This game is called a cyclic permutation, and it means that you take the last toy in the row and move it to the beginning. So in our example, you would move the book to the front of the line, making the new order: book, teddy bear, ball, doll, car.
Then you would do the same thing again, taking the last toy (which is now the car) and moving it to the front, making the new order: car, book, teddy bear, ball, doll.
You can keep doing this over and over again, always taking the last toy and moving it to the front, until you get back to the original order: teddy bear, ball, doll, car, book.
That's a cyclic permutation - it's just a fancy way of saying you're moving things around in a circle.
