This property states that, for example, if it is known that {{val| 12 19 28 }} is a GPV, then the next GPV is one of {{val| 13 19 28 }}, {{val| 12 20 28 }}, or {{val| 12 19 29 }}. | This property states that, for example, if it is known that {{val| 12 19 28 }} is a GPV, then the next GPV is one of {{val| 13 19 28 }}, {{val| 12 20 28 }}, or {{val| 12 19 29 }}. | ||
