A302499 Lexicographically first sequence of distinct terms such that any set of four successive digits can be reordered as {d, d+1, d+2, d+3}, d being the smallest of the four digits.

0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 67, 85, 674, 56, 34, 52, 341, 23, 41, 230, 12, 30, 123, 45, 63, 452, 345, 234, 523, 412, 301, 2301, 2341, 2345, 634, 563, 456, 74, 567, 89, 678, 96, 78, 967, 856, 745, 6345, 6745, 6785, 6789, 67856, 785, 67456, 789, 67896, 7856, 7456, 3452, 3412, 3012, 3456, 7896

Comments

As the digit 0 has no predecessor and the digit 9 has no successor here, sets of successive digits like {2,1,0,9} and {7,8,9,0} are forbidden.

Example

Terms a(1) to a(10) are obvious;
a(11) is 67 because 67 is the smallest integer not yet in the sequence such that the elements of the sets {7,8,9,6} and {8,9,6,7} are four consecutive digits;
a(12) is 85 because 85 is the smallest integer not yet in the sequence such that the elements of the sets {9,6,7,8} and {6,7,8,5} are four consecutive digits;
a(13) is 674 because 674 is the smallest integer not yet in the sequence such that the elements of the three sets {7,8,5,6}, {8,5,6,7} and {5,6,7,4} are four consecutive digits;
etc.
