We do need to agree on which 30 permutations should be
used
in the validation of the benchmark (just to make sure
that
the algorithms are producing correct output).

Perhaps we could specify the 30 (or perhaps 'N')
permutations
as an input file, or perhaps require that they be
hard-coded
into the program?

The problem with using an input file is that now we
are involving
file I/O in the benchmark, which introduces questions
about
where time is being spent (i.e., file access instead
of
pancake-flipping).
