I have just solved this problem..Its super simple just some if-else condition, however, I don’t think about efficient way, so please follow the solution and try to efficient it.
public static void main(String[] args) {
int [] numberList = {1,2,3,4,5,6,458,243};
int initialSequence = -1;
int endSequence = -5;
for (int num = 0; num<numberList.length;num++) {
if(num<numberList.length-1) {
if(initialSequence == -1 && numberList[num] == numberList[num+1]-1) {
initialSequence = endSequence = numberList[num];
}else if(initialSequence == -1 && numberList[num] != numberList[num+1]-1){
System.out.print(numberList[num] + " ");
}else if(initialSequence != -1 && numberList[num] == numberList[num+1]-1) {
endSequence = numberList[num];
}
else {
System.out.print(initialSequence + "-" + (endSequence+1) + " ");
initialSequence = -1;
endSequence = -5;
}
}else {
if(initialSequence == -1) System.out.print(numberList[num] + " ");
else {
System.out.print(initialSequence + "-" + (endSequence+1) + " ");
}
}
}
}

solved How the consecutive numbers can be replaced with the range of number and random number should be as it is?
