--description--

Consider all the words which can be formed by selecting letters, in any order, from the phrase:

thereisasyetinsufficientdataforameaningfulanswer

Suppose those with 15 letters or less are listed in alphabetical order and numbered sequentially starting at 1.

The list would include:

1 : a

2 : aa

3 : aaa

4 : aaaa

5 : aaaaa

6 : aaaaaa

7 : aaaaaac

8 : aaaaaacd

9 : aaaaaacde

10 : aaaaaacdee

11 : aaaaaacdeee

12 : aaaaaacdeeee

13 : aaaaaacdeeeee

14 : aaaaaacdeeeeee

15 : aaaaaacdeeeeeef

16 : aaaaaacdeeeeeeg

17 : aaaaaacdeeeeeeh

...

28 : aaaaaacdeeeeeey

29 : aaaaaacdeeeeef

30 : aaaaaacdeeeeefe

525069350231428029: ywuuttttssssrrrDefine P(w) as the position of the word w.

Define W(p) as the word in position p.

We can see that P(w) and W(p) are inverses: P(W(p)) = p and W(P(w)) = w.

Examples:

W(10) = aaaaaacdee

P(aaaaaacdee) = 10

W(115246685191495243) = euler

P(euler) = 115246685191495243Find W(P(legionary) + P(calorimeters) - P(annihilate) + P(orchestrated) - P(fluttering)).

Give your answer using lowercase characters (no punctuation or space).
