Default how to select no.'s in a column that differ by <1

aHi, could anyone tell me how to select numbers from a list/column that
differ from other numbers on the list by e.g. <1? Can I do this by inserting
formula or would this involve programming? Any help would be extremely
appreciated.

Let's say we have values in column A. First sort the column if it is not
already sorted ( or copy the column and sort elsewhere). Then select A2 and
apply Conditional Formatting Formula is:

=A2-A1<1

and copy the formatting down the column. This works because we are bringing
close values close together
