Step 1: Divide the number into separate digits:
3277 => 3 2 7 7
Step 2: Calculate the distance between each digit and the next (the last digit with the first):
3 to 2 => 1
2 to 7 => 5
7 to 7 => 0
7 to 3 => 4
Step 3: Convert distances to codes (0=E[qual],
1 & 9 = C[onsecutive], 2-8 = N[one]):
1 => C
5 => N
0 => E
4 => N
Step 4: Combine the filters to a string:
C N E N = CNEN
