# --description--
|
|
|
|
Working from left-to-right if no digit is exceeded by the digit to its left it is called an increasing number; for example, 134468.
|
|
|
|
Similarly if no digit is exceeded by the digit to its right it is called a decreasing number; for example, 66420.
|
|
|
|
We shall call a positive integer that is neither increasing nor decreasing a "bouncy" number; for example, 155349.
|
|
|
|
Clearly there cannot be any bouncy numbers below one-hundred, but just over half of the numbers below one-thousand (525) are bouncy. In fact, the least number for which the proportion of bouncy numbers first reaches 50% is 538.
|
|
|
|
Surprisingly, bouncy numbers become more and more common and by the time we reach 21780 the proportion of bouncy numbers is equal to 90%.
|
|
|
|
Find the least number for which the proportion of bouncy numbers is exactly 99%.

`euler112()` should return 1587000.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert.strictEqual(euler112(), 1587000);
|
|
```
