CCC '13 S1 - From 1987 to 2013
View as PDFCanadian Computing Competition: 2013 Stage 1, Junior #3, Senior #1
You might be surprised to know that 2013 is the first year since 1987 with distinct digits. The years 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 each have distinct digits. 2012 does not have distinct digits, since the digit 2 is repeated.
Given a year, what is the next year with distinct digits?
Input Specification

ew disgusting they aren't even good games
I think they are actual roblox games, so if you play roblox, you can confirm they exist, and that superduperoffensive did not make them up. ( he made up the monsters though, i think)
get out
A distinct year will have the length of its digits array/list equal to the length of the set of its digits.

hi i was advised not to send my orignal post
Create a function to check duplicate which outputs True if there's a duplicate. In that function input is the given string, then loop over the string and create 2 lists to check for duplicate. After that just run a while loop where you increment the year until the duplicate function finds the duplicate. Cheers!
I think you need to do substring comparison of the input. Or convert the input into a list and do element comparison.
bruteforce worked for me, i just incremented by 1 and checked if that year had distinct numbers by converting it into a hashset and comparing the size and the length
