# Validate Random Die Tippers

Almost six years ago, fellow PPCG member steenslag posted the following challenge:

In a standard dice (die) the numbers are arranged so that opposite faces add to seven. Write the shortest possible program in your preferred language which outputs a random throw followed by 9 random tippings. A tipping is a quarter turn of the dice, e.g. if the dice is facing 5, all possible tippings are 1,3,4 and 6.

Example of desired output:

1532131356

So, now that everybody has completely forgotten about it and the winning answer has long since been accepted, we'll be writing a program to validate the die tipping sequences generated by the submitted solutions. (This makes sense. Just pretend it does.)

# Challenge

Your program or function is given a sequence such as 1532131356. Validate that each consecutive digit is:

• Not equal to the previous digit
• Not equal to 7 minus the previous digit

(You don't have to validate the first digit.)

## Rules

• Your program must return a truthy value if the input is valid and a falsey value otherwise.
• You can assume that the input consists of only the digits 1-6 and is at least 1 character long. Sequences won't have a fixed length like in steenslag's challenge.
• You can take the input as a string ("324324"), an array or array-like datastructure ([1,3,5]) or as multiple arguments (yourFunction(1,2,4)).

Standard I/O and loophole rules apply.

edit 1: using (mapcat ...) instead of (flatten(map ...))

edit 2: using (juxt - +) instead of (juxt = +), checking for values 0 or 7

#(not(some #{0 7}(mapcat(juxt - +)(rest %)%)))


Consecutive values are not allowed to be equal (difference = 0) or sum up to 7. Got to use juxt again :)

Like many existing answers, it computes the bitwise XOR of consecutive elements of the input, and checks that the answer is never 0 nor 7. # Bash, 60 bytes f(){ while [$2 ]

Takes separate arguments as input.

## Explanation

while-do-shift-done loops though the arguments giving each pair a turn as ($1,$2) if the loop completes truth is returned.

The complicated expression (( ($1^$2)%7 )) exclusive-ors the the arguments being tested together and mod(7)s them.

Valid pairs will result in non-zero, invalid ones in zero.

((...)) yields true when the arithmetic returns non-zero.

|| runs the next command if the previous was false (in this context that means if the arithmetic above returned 0).

Unix shell treats zero as true (except as above) so return 1 yields a false result from this function when an invalid pair is found.

Takes input as a string. Prints 1 if the input is valid, an empty string otherwise.

Calculates XOR by pairs of adjacent characters, using shifted version of the input. Then searches for 0x00 or 0x07 characters in it.

This can definitely be made a little smaller
