Divisibility Streak

Question

We can define the Divisibility Streak k of a number n by finding the smallest non-negative integer k such that n+k is not divisible by k+1.

Challenge

In your language of choice, write a program or function that outputs or returns the Divisibility Streak of your input.

Examples:

n=13:
13 is divisible by 1 
14 is divisible by 2 
15 is divisible by 3 
16 is divisible by 4 
17 is not divisible by 5

The Divisibilty Streak of 13 is 4

n=120:
120 is divisible by 1 
121 is not divisible by 2 

The Divisibilty Streak of 120 is 1

Test Cases:

n      DS
2      1
3      2
4      1
5      2
6      1
7      3
8      1
9      2
10     1
2521   10

More test cases can be found here.

Notes

• Based on Project Euler Problem 601
• This sequence can be found on OEIS, shifted down by 1.

Rules

• You can assume the input is greater than 1.

This feels really suboptimal, with the incrementing and the final decrement, but I can't really see a way to improve on it. Basically we just increment a counter i and our starting value as long as value mod i continues to be zero, and once that's not true we subtract one from i and print.

I think there's still room for golfing here.

Explanation (ungolfed)

[: {.@I. >:@i. | i. + ]
                 i. + ]  Range [n,2n)
                 i.       Range [0,n)
                    +     Added to each
                      ]   n
         >:@i. | i. + ]  Divisibility test
         >:@i.            Range [1,n+1)
               |          Modulo (in J, the arguments are reversed)
                 i. + ]   Range [n,2n)
    {.@I.                Get the index of the first non-divisible
       I.                 Indices of non-zero values
    {.                    Head

The cap ([:) is there to make sure that J doesn't treat the last verb ({.@I.) as part of a hook.

The only sort of weird thing about this answer is that I. actually duplicates the index of each non-zero number as many times as that number's value. e.g.

   I. 0 1 0 2 3
1 3 3 4 4 4

But it doesn't matter since we want the first index anyways (and since i. gives an ascending range, we know the first index will be the smallest value).

Finally, here's a very short proof that it is valid to check division only up to n.

We start checking divisibility with 1 | n, so assuming the streak goes that far, once we get to checking divisibility by n we have n | 2n - 1 which will never be true (2n - 1 ≡ n - 1 (mod n)). Therefore, the streak will end there.

                Loop:

89 C8              mov    eax, ecx   ; copy argument to EAX for division
99                 cdq               ; use 1-byte CDQ with unsigned to zero EDX
F7 FF              idiv   edi        ; EDX:EAX / counter
85 D2              test   edx, edx   ; test remainder
74 F6              jz     Loop       ; keep looping if remainder == 0

4F                 dec    edi        ; decrement counter
97                 xchg   eax, edi   ; move counter into EAX for return
C3                 ret               ;  (use 1-byte XCHG instead of 2-byte MOV)

The above function takes a single parameter, n, in the ECX register. It computes its divisibility streak, k, and returns that via the EAX register. It conforms to the 32-bit fastcall calling convention, so it is easily callable from C code using either Microsoft or Gnu compilers.

The logic is pretty simple: it just does an iterative test starting from 1. It's functionally identical to most of the other answers here, but hand-optimized for size. Lots of nice 1-byte instructions there, including INC, DEC, CDQ, and XCHG. The hard-coded operands for division hurt us a bit, but not terribly so.

Mathematical approach, n+k is divisible by k+1 if and only if n-1 is divisible by k+1. And n-1 is not divisible by n, so Range@# is enough numbers.

Originally I intend to use Min@Complement[Range@#,Divisors[#-1]]-1&, but this also work.

[;`%
I)@]
iIk2I(D(
rk[(&Xpu

I could save one byte if I don't have to exit.

Explanation:

We use three stacks: The left stack holds a counter starting at 2, the right one holds the given number (or its increments), the center stack is used for doing the modulo operations. We could, of course, do everything in one stack, but this way we can set the outer stacks to be "sticky" (values that are popped aren't really removed) and save ourselves many duplication operations. Here's the method in detail:

Read an integer, increment it, make the current stack sticky, and "move" it (and ourselves) to the stack to the left:

iI
rk[

Go one more stack to the left, push a literal 2, make this stack sticky, too. Remember this position in the code (@), and "move" a value and ourselves to the center stack again.

  @]
  k2
   (

Now we test: Is the modulo of the top two numbers not 0? If so, jump to the end, otherwise go one stack to the right, increment, and push the value and us to the middle. Then go to the left stack, increment it, too, and jump back to the mark that we set before.

[;`%
I)
    I(
    &

When the result of the modulo was not zero, we invert the position the IP is moving, go one stack to the left (where our counter lives), decrement it, and print the value, then exit.
