Python で順列を生成するにはどうすればよいですか?

import itertools
list(itertools.permutations([1, 2, 3]))

def permutations(elements):
    if len(elements) <= 1:
        yield elements
        return
    for perm in permutations(elements[1:]):
        for i in range(len(elements)):
            yield perm[:i] + elements[0:1] + perm[i:]

# Using reversed indices
