COMMENTS

Powers of permutation 235174968, taken in the initial four pairs of 2, generate all 36 pairs of 9 bells, making this a Plain Bob Caters rule. Words for three to twelve bells are Singles, Minimus, Doubles, Minor, Triples, Major, Caters, Royal, Cinques and Maximus.

2 3 5 1 7 4 9 6 8 10 -- The terms <= 10 give a Plain Bob Royal generator.

2 3 5 1 7 4 6 8 -- The terms <= 8 give a Plain Bob Major generator: 23 51 74 68, 35 72 61 48, 57 63 42 18, 76 45 13 28, 64 17 25 38, 41 26 37 58, 12 34 56 78.
