Once you've said "permutations", you don't need to add "(restricted 
such that each digit appears exactly once)"; this is implied by the 
word "permutation". If you feel you need to include it, stick "i.e.," 
or "that is," in front of it; otherwise you'll confuse people who think 
you are adding an additional restriction, and wonder what non-standard 
meaning you are using for "permutation".

And please don't capitalize "permutation" when it occurs in the middle 
of a sentence.
