</h6>
<p>
<code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">next_permutation</span></code> transforms
the range of elements <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">rng</span></code>
into the lexicographically next greater permutation of the elements if
such a permutation exists. If one does not exist then the range is transformed
into the lexicographically smallest permutation and <code class="computeroutput"><span class="keyword">false</span></code>
is returned. <code class="computeroutput"><span class="keyword">true</span></code> is returned
when the next greater permutation is successfully generated.
</p>
<p>
The ordering relationship is determined by using <code class="computeroutput"><span class="keyword">operator</span><span class="special">&lt;</span></code> in the non-predicate versions, and
by evaluating <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">pred</span></code> in
the predicate versions.
