Given a permutation $(a_{1}, a_{1},...,a_{n})$ of the numbers $1, 2,...,n$ one may interchange any two consecutive "blocks" - that is, one may transform ($a_{1}, a_{2},...,a_{i}$,$\underbrace {a_{i+1},... a_{i+p},}_{A} $ $ \underbrace{a_{i+p+1},...,a_{i+q},}_{B}...,a_{n}) $ into $ (a_{1}, a_{2},...,a_{i},$ $ \underbrace {a_{i+p+1},...,a_{i+q},}_{B} $ $ \underbrace {a_{i+1},... a_{i+p}}_{A}$$,...,a_{n}) $ by interchanging the "blocks" $A$ and $B$.
