Open Rules

Nabner

No two digits anywhere on the line are consecutive. The distinct parameter also forbids repeats.

Parameters

Parameter Meaning Default
line The cells in order, for example r1c1-r1c2-r1c3. Required. L has no repeated cell.
distinct Whether repeated digits are forbidden. false (repeats allowed).

Maths

Class: first-order.

The shared predicates define the notation and every named predicate.

∀i,j ∈ [0,|line|): i ≠ j →
  |D(line[i])−D(line[j])| ≠ 1 ∧ (distinct → D(line[i]) ≠ D(line[j]))

Digits at different path positions are never one apart. If distinct is true, their digits must also differ.

Breaks the rule: r1c1=1, r1c2=2. 1 and 2 are consecutive.
