COMMENT

a(n) is a multiple of 99 for n > 4. Conjecture: The sequence has finitely many nonzero terms. (This would happen when the concatenation of two successive terms becomes a palindrome and the next term is 0.)

EXAMPLE

a(1) = 1, a(2) = 2, a(3) = |12-21| = 9, a(4) = |29-92| = 63, a(5) = |963-369| = 594, a(6) = |63594 - 49536| = 14058, a(7) = |59418018 - 81081495| = 21663477, ...
