Step 1: Divide the number into separate digits:
794 => 7 9 4
Step 2: Calculate the distance between each digit and the next (the last digit with the first):
7 to 9 => 2
9 to 4 => 5
4 to 7 => 3
Step 3: Convert distances to codes (0=E[qual],
1 & 9 = C[onsecutive], 2-8 = N[one]):
2 => N
5 => N
3 => N
Step 4: Combine the filters to a string:
N N N = NNN
