    So, how would you tackle this issue without a computer?

    Write that down, and then translate that into a computer program.

    In the end, it will always come out to checking whether a list of terms is sequential.

    You could split your approach in two parts:

    1. Extract a list of terms from a document
    2. Check whether a list of terms is sequential

    ... and implement each of these, and in the end put them together.
