Step 1: Divide the number into separate digits:
34881 => 3 4 8 8 1
Step 2: Calculate the distance between each digit and the next (the last digit with the first):
3 to 4 => 1
4 to 8 => 4
8 to 8 => 0
8 to 1 => 7
1 to 3 => 2
Step 3: Convert distances to codes (0=E[qual],
1 & 9 = C[onsecutive], 2-8 = N[one]):
1 => C
4 => N
0 => E
7 => N
2 => N
Step 4: Combine the filters to a string:
C N E N N = CNENN
