A readable form of a problem presented (given a start and end range as integers, return all numbers that are 'naturally' sorted and have at least one repeating number)
<?php
/*
Some notes;
solution takes 2 integers in a range; returns all numbers that are sorted naturally already (number never 'descends' mid-string);
Took about 35-40 minutes (5-10 on devising a solution, 20-25ish on writing code)
Also there are certainly more loop-based performance optimizations, but PHP is already pretty performant; I like preg_match.

$stringArray = str_split($string);
