Question

First, see if you can design an algorithm that takes as input a 9 digit number where no digit appears twice and produces as output an arrangement of the same 9 digits corresponding to the next highest number. If no such number exists, the algorithm should indicate this. So for example if the input is 781623954 the output would be 781624359. You can use bulleted english to describe your algorithm.

Now write a program in Python to do this task. You may find that the algorithm that you constructed above is difficult to implement but following a kind of brute force approach similar to that in Problem 1 is not too tough.

Follow-up Question

What if I wanted to test out a number a nine digit number with 0 in it? Would the code still be the same if I wanted to include 0 as one of the digits? For example a nine digit number like 508764319
