How to count by 779
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 779, we count 779, 1558, 2337, 3116, and so on.

779
779 + 779 = 1558
1558 + 779 = 2337
2337 + 779 = 3116
3116 + 779 = 3895
...

You can of course skip count by 779 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 779 Chart of the first 100 numbers to get you started.

Looking at the chart above, you will see that the first column has the first ten numbers you get when you skip count by 779, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 779, and so forth.
