Step 1: Divide the number into separate digits:
77342 => 7 7 3 4 2
Step 2: Calculate the distance between each digit and the next (the last digit with the first):
7 to 7 => 0
7 to 3 => 4
3 to 4 => 1
4 to 2 => 2
2 to 7 => 5
Step 3: Convert distances to codes (0=E[qual],
1 & 9 = C[onsecutive], 2-8 = N[one]):
0 => E
4 => N
1 => C
2 => N
5 => N
Step 4: Combine the filters to a string:
E N C N N = ENCNN
