COMMENT

Let b(n) = sum( A037904(k),{k=1..n}), then the lim b(n)/n -> 9. Reason, as the number of digits increases, then the likelihood of the maximum digit -> 9 and the minimum digits -> 0 becomes one.

MATHEMATICA

f[n_] := Block[{d = IntegerDigits[n]}, Max[d] - Min[d]]; s = 0; k = 0; Do[ While[k != 10^n, k++; s = s + f[k]]; Print[s], {n, 1, 8}]
