A superpermutation is a specific kind of permutation that contains every permutation of a set of \( n \) elements as a contiguous subsequence. More formally, if you have \( n \) distinct symbols, a superpermutation is a string that includes each possible ordering of those symbols—called permutations—at least once. The length of the shortest superpermutation for \( n \) elements has been the subject of interest in combinatorial mathematics.
