I am implementing the following problem in ruby.

Here's the pattern that I want :

1234, 1324, 1432, 1423, 2341 and so on

i.e. the digits in the four digit number should be between [1-4] and should also be non-repetitive.

to make you understand in a simple manner I take a two digit pattern and the solution should be : 12, 21

i.e. the digits should be either 1 or 2 and should be non-repetitive.

To make sure that they are non-repetitive I want to use $1 for the condition for my second digit but its not working.

Please help me out and thanks in advance.
