1,2,4
Yes.

A,B,C
No.

Yes to all.

Must start at 1, can stay at current number or increase, must be a whole number, sequence can’t have more than 4 numbers
No.

I'll give y'all a hint: the rule I have in mind is a string function.

Damnit people, this is why I said to keep the truce. Because now everyone's ganging up on the cats.
Also, don't forget to contact your local Eldritch Being(s), so that they can help with our mission to destroy the universe.

It was mainly to avoid doing 1,1,7 ,1,1,8 ,1,1,9 and so on, but there is something interesting there.
01,01,09?

2,2,3
Yes.

2,2,3,4
No.

3,3,4,5
No.

3345
No.

1.2
12.3
123.4
Hmm, I'm not really sure how decimals work with this rule... if not for that, all these sequences would be valid.

741
Yes.

7,4,1
No. Yes.


Hint: this rule relates to the function of some device.
