Julien Lengrand-Lambert d30505b12e Solves Problem 24.
Gets all permutations, and choose one of those.
Good solution could be to avoid the list and use an iterator

Problem 26 seems though :s.

# DESCRIPTION : Solves problem 26 of Project Euler
A unit fraction contains 1 in the numerator. The decimal representation of the unit fractions with denominators 2 to 10 are given:
1/2 = 0.5
1/3 = 0.(3)
1/4 = 0.25
1/5 = 0.2
1/6 = 0.1(6)
1/7 = 0.(142857)
1/8 = 0.125
1/9 = 0.(1)
1/10 = 0.1
Where 0.1(6) means 0.166666..., and has a 1-digit recurring cycle. It can be seen that 1/7 has a 6-digit recurring cycle.
Find the value of d 1000 for which 1/d contains the longest recurring cycle in its decimal fraction part.
