in thread Shortest string containing all from 0000 to 9999 challenge.
Nope. This one starts with "9999", so the translation would start with "0000" which would sort before this one (hence, it couldn't be last.)
I think you will get the lexicographically last shortest if you perform that translation on the lexicographically first shortest though. :-)
