Next Permutation

Y
// A practice to find lexicographically next greater permutation of the given array of integers.
// If there does not exist any greater permutation, then print the lexicographically smallest permutation of the given array.
// The implementation below, finds the next permutation in linear time and constant memory and returns in place
// Useful reference: https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/next-permutation/
