Question

Write a recursive function called that takes a string of single names separated by spaces and prints out all possible combinations (permutations), each combination on a new line.

When the input is:

Alice Bob Charlie

then the output is:

Alice Bob Charlie

Alice Charlie Bob

Bob Alice Charlie

Bob Charlie Alice

Charlie Alice Bob

Charlie Bob Alice

Here is my original code that needs to be fixed:

def all_permutations(permList, nameList):
    # TODO: Implement method to create and output all permutations of the list of names.
    if nameList == len(permList) - 1:
        return nameList
    else:
        for x in range(permList, len(nameList)):
            permList[nameList], permList[x] = permList[x], permList[name_List]
            return all_permutations(permList, nameList + 1)
            permList[nameList], permList[x] = permList[x], permList[name_List]


if __name__ == "main": 
    nameList = input().split(' ')
    permList = []
    all_permutations(permList, nameList)
