Algebra, chapter I, § 5. Groups operating on a set

If σ\sigma is a cycle of order dd, then

ε(σ)=(−1)d−1. \varepsilon(\sigma) = (-1)^{d-1}.
The number of inversions of the permutation
(1,2,3,…,d)↦(d,1,2,…,d−1) (1, 2, 3, \ldots, d) \mapsto (d, 1, 2, \ldots, d-1)
is equal to d−1d-1.

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
