An esthetic number is a positive integer where every adjacent digit differs from its neighbour by 1.

Task
Esthetic numbers
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.


E.G.
  • 12 is an esthetic number. One and two differ by 1.
  • 5654 is an esthetic number. Each digit is exactly 1 away from its neighbour.
  • 890 is not an esthetic number. Nine and zero differ by 9.


These examples are nominally in base 10 but the concept extends easily to numbers in other bases. Traditionally, single digit numbers are included in esthetic numbers; zero may or may not be. For our purposes, for this task, do not include zero (0) as an esthetic number. Do not include numbers with leading zeros.

Esthetic numbers are also sometimes referred to as stepping numbers.


Task
  • Write a routine (function, procedure, whatever) to find esthetic numbers in a given base.
  • Use that routine to find esthetic numbers in bases 2 through 16 and display, here on this page, the esthectic numbers from index (base × 4) through index (base × 6), inclusive. (E.G. for base 2: 8th through 12th, for base 6: 24th through 36th, etc.)
  • Find and display, here on this page, the base 10 esthetic numbers with a magnitude between 1000 and 9999.
  • Stretch: Find and display, here on this page, the base 10 esthetic numbers with a magnitude between 1.0e8 and 1.3e8.

Factor

The bfs word is an adaptation of the algorithm from the Geeks for Geeks reference. It has been changed to work with any base. In summary, this algorithm constructs esthetic numbers directly using a breadth first search. For example, we know the only two esthetic numbers that can be constructed from 23 are 232 and 234, or in other words, the last digit of 23 ± 1 appended to 23. This forms a tree for each digit in a given base where each node is an esthetic number and can have at most two children. This method is very fast and has been used to find the count of esthetic numbers in base 10 between zero and one quadrillion.

A simple brute force approach suffices for the first and second parts of the task.

For the last two parts (stretched up to 1.0e17/1.3e17), a 'depth first search' approach is used with the obvious range limitations imposed for extra speed.

(Result e not displayed here -- it's the same as next^:8]1 below.)

It's much more efficient to generate sequences of digits from a base digit, rather than generating sequential integers and discarding those which are not suitable.

For example, we can generate a directed graph, from one digit to the one or two viable adjacent digits, and then build up a result based on all viable values of the rightmost digit of the current list of partially built candidates:

graph=: </./|:0 1,10 10#:(#~ isesthetic)10+i.90

jq

Adapted from Wren

Works with: jq

Also works with gojq, the Go implementation of jq.

### Preliminaries
# _nwise/1 is included here for the sake of gojq:
def _nwise($n):
  def n: if length <= $n then . else .[0:$n] , (.[$n:] | n) end;
  n;

def tobase($b):
  def digit: "0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"[.:.+1];
  def mod: . % $b;
  def div: ((. - mod) / $b);
  def digits: recurse( select(. > 0) | div) | mod ;
  # For jq it would be wise to protect against `infinite` as input, but using `isinfinite` confuses gojq
  select( (tostring|test("^[0-9]+$")) and 2 <= $b and $b <= 36)
  | if . == 0 then "0"
    else [digits | digit] | reverse[1:] | add
    end;

### Esthetic Numbers
def isEsthetic($b):
  if . == 0 then false
  else {i: (. % $b), n: ((./$b)|floor) }
  | until (.n <= 0;
      (.n % $b) as $j
      | if (.i - $j)|length != 1  # abs
        then .n = -1 #flag
        else .n |= ((./$b)|floor)
        | .i = $j
        end)
  | .n != -1
  end;  

# depth-first search
# input: {esths}
def dfs($n; $m; $i):
  if ($i >= $n and $i <= $m) then .esths += [$i] else . end
  | if ($i == 0 or $i > $m) then .
    else ($i % 10) as $d
    | ($i*10 + $d - 1) as $i1
    | ($i1 + 2) as $i2
    | if $d == 0
      then dfs($n; $m; $i2)
      elif $d == 9
      then dfs($n; $m; $i1)
      else dfs($n; $m; $i1) | dfs($n; $m; $i2)
      end
    end;

### The tasks
def listEsths(n; n2; m; m2; $perLine; $all):
  ( {esths: []}
    | reduce range(0;10) as $i (.; dfs(n2; m2; $i) )

        (.esths[:$perLine] | join(" ")),
        "............",
        (.esths[-$perLine:] | join(" "))
      end ),
    "";

def task($maxBase):
  range (2; 1+$maxBase) as $b
  | "Base \($b): \(4*$b)th to \(6*$b)th esthetic numbers:",
    ( [{ n: 1, c: 0 }

           | if (.n|isEsthetic($b))
             then .c += 1
             | if .c >= 4*$b
               then .emit = "\(.n | tobase($b))"
               else .
               end

counting

Of course (for instance) the number of 62-digit esthetic numbers beginning with 5 is just the sum of the number of 61-digit esthetic numbers beginning with 4 plus the number of 61-digit esthetic numbers beginning with 6. Those in turn can be calculated from 60-digit numbers beginning 3+5 and 5+7, and at most 10 sums per digit. In other words we can count the total number of 62-digit esthetic numbers with at most 574 additions from a table of at most 610 entries, in practice obviously just do all 610.

function count_esthetic(integer len, start=0)
    -- a start digit of 0 means sum all 1..9
    sequence dc = repeat(repeat(1,10),len) -- nb 0..9 logically
    for i=2 to len do
        for d=0 to 9 do
            dc[i][d+1] = iff(d=0?0:dc[i-1][d]) + iff(d=9?0:dc[i-1][d+2])
        end for
    end for
    if start=0 then return sum(dc[len][1..9]) end if -- (see note)
    return dc[len][start+1]
end function

sequence t = tagset(iff(machine_bits()=64?63:57),9,3),
         r = columnize({apply(true,count_esthetic,{t,1}),t})
papply(true,printf,{1,{"There are %,26d %2d-digit esthetic numbers beginning with 1\n"},r})
if machine_bits()=64 then
 printf(1,"There are %,26d 64-digit esthetic numbers\n",{count_esthetic(64)})
 printf(1,"There are %,26d esthetic numbers with max 65 digits\n",{sum(apply(tagset(64),count_esthetic))})
end if

(It turns out that [1..9] is the same as [2..10] anyway, by symmetry, but technically the latter would be the more correct expression for digits 1..9)

Output:

Matches Pascal output. Obviously on 32-bit/js you don't get the last four lines, if you did they'd be slightly wrong due to the 53-bit accuracy limit.

RPL

No brute force here, but a step-by-step generation, starting from a seed made up of the list of the digits of the base.

Task is accomplished in 999 seconds - precisely - on a basic HP-28S (4-bit CPU, 32 Mb RAM), but just in a few seconds on an iOS-based emulator.
