FORMULA
|
If n is greater than 2 and even, than a(n) is 8 followed by (n / 2) - 2 nines followed by another 8 followed by (n / 2) - 1 threes followed by 5. If n is greater than 2 and odd, than a(n) is 8 followed by (n / 2) - 1.5 nines followed by a 2 followed by (n / 2) - 1.5 threes followed by a 5.

EXAMPLE
|
a(2) = 75. If someone types 91 into a calculator and rotates it 180 degrees, they will get 16. 91 - 16 = 75. It is easy to check that no larger differences can be obtained.
