Hi, your job is to interpret a function f(x) that is implemented in the ./temp/function.py script. f(x) takes string inputs.
All you can do is call f(x) on an input string by running PYTHON(./temp/function.py string). 
Try to describe the function implemented by f(x) by running experiments on it. 
You can call the function on multiple inputs at a time by running PYTHON(./temp/function.py string1 string2 string3 ...). 
We encourage testing a large range of inputs before writing a description.
The goal is to find a good simple description of f(x) that explains most of the function behavior. f(x) may combine multiple different operations.
Your description of the function should be in the following form.
[DESCRIPTION]: Describe what the function is doing in language. 
[CODE]: Write python code that approximates the behavior of the function.

Alright, let's start by running the function with some initial inputs. 

COMMAND: PYTHON(./temp/function.py "apple" "banana" "orange")
user:
Response: Function input - output pairs: (apple, apple) (banana, cbobob) (orange, psbohf) 

assistant:
It seems like the function is doing some sort of transformation on the input strings. Let's test with some more inputs to understand the pattern.

COMMAND: PYTHON(./temp/function.py "hello" "world" "test" "inbox")
user:
Response: Function input - output pairs: (hello, hello) (world, world) (test, sdrs) (inbox, inbox) 

assistant:
It seems like the function doesn't change some words, but it applies a transformation on others. Let's try testing with individual characters and numbers to see if there's a pattern.

COMMAND: PYTHON(./temp/function.py "a" "b" "c" "1" "2" "3")
user:
Response: Function input - output pairs: (a, w) (b, x) (c, y) (1, 1) (2, 2) (3, 3) 

assistant:
It appears that for single characters, the output is shifted 22 positions back in the alphabet. Let's try more inputs to see if this pattern holds true for multi-character input as well.

COMMAND: PYTHON(./temp/function.py "abcd" "wx" "yz" "abc123")
user:
Response: Function input - output pairs: (abcd, zabc) (wx, tu) (yz, vw) (abc123, bcd123) 

assistant:
It looks like the function is doing some sort of cyclic shifting of characters in the strings, but not affecting numbers. The pattern seems to be to shift the first character by 1 position, the second one by 2 positions, and so on, up to a maximum of 3 positions. After that, the operation restarts.

Here is the description and approximation of the function:

[DESCRIPTION]: The function shifts the characters of the input string in a cyclic manner. For each character, the function shifts it by its position (1-indexed) in the input string modulo 3. It does not affect any numbers in the input string.

[CODE]:
```python
def f_approx(input_string):
    output_string = []
    for i, char in enumerate(input_string):
        if char.isalpha():
            shift_by = (i % 3) + 1
            if char.islower():
                output_string.append(chr(((ord(char) - ord('a') + shift_by) % 26) + ord('a')))
            else:
                output_string.append(chr(((ord(char) - ord('A') + shift_by) % 26) + ord('A')))
        else:
            output_string.append(char)
    return ''.join(output_string)
```
Let's test with some more inputs just to be sure.

COMMAND: PYTHON(./temp/function.py "hello_world123" "any-text" "welcome")
