Problem 1162. Happy 2013...
Happy 2013, everyone! An interesting tidbit about 2013 is that it is the first year since 1987 to contain four different digits. Write a MATLAB function that, when given a start year and an end year, will tell you how many of the years between these two values have four unique digits. You may assume that the years will only have four digits, and that the start year will be smaller than the end year.
For example: if start=1000 and finish=1023, your output should be 1, as 1023 is the only year in that range that has four unique digits.

we learn everyday something with CODY!
This problem needs to be fixed!!!!!!
Now that I've noticed people were having issues with this problem (thanks it it being added to the "Magic Numbers II" group) I've fixed the test suite. Cody changed the way their test suites were read in sometime in October, 2016 judging from when things went south. Those changes messed up this problem. I manually rescored a couple of solutions to confirm that the fixes worked, and they did. The problem is now functional.
