> Dear all, I would need your help to implement a permutation algorithm allowing the generation of building plans, that I’ve recently stumbled on while reading Professor Kostas Terzidis’ latest publication: [Permutation Design: Buildings, Texts and Contexts](https://books.google.com/books/about/Permutation_Design.html?id=govtnQEACAAJ&source=kp_book_description&redir_esc=y) (2014). CONTEXT Consider a site (b) that is divided into a grid system (a). Let’s also consider a list of spaces to be placed within the limits of the site ( c ) and an adjacency matrix to determine the placement conditions and neighboring …
