    ABSTRACT:: The r-Stirling numbers of the first and second kind count
               restricted permutations and respectively restricted
               partitions, the restriction being that the first r elements
               must be in distinct cycles and respectively distinct subsets.
               The combinatorial and algebraic properties of these numbers,
               which is most cases generalize similar properties of the
               regular Stirling numbers, are explored starting from the
               above definition.
