Question

I have the following code for finding the next permutation:

#include <iostream>
#include <algorithm>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    int max = 3;
    int arr[max] = { 1, 2, 3};
 
    do {
        cout << arr[0] << " " << arr[1] << " " << arr[2] << " " << arr[0] << "\n";
    } while (next_permutation(arr + 1, arr + max));
 
    cout << "After loop: " << arr[0] << ' '
         << arr[1] << ' ' << arr[2] << '\n';
 
    return 0;
}

It gives me the following output:

1 2 3 1
1 3 2 1
After loop: 1 2 3

Now, I am wondering why the permutation would stop at 1321 and why would it order it in such a way.
