Example

a(1396)=1 because A040115(1396)=263, A040115(263)=43, A040115(43)=1.
a(1237584965)=1 from 6-fold application of A040115: 1237584965->114234531 -> 3211122 -> 110010 -> 01011=1011 -> 110 -> 01 -> 1.

Maple

A040115 := proc(n) local digs, digsdiff, i; digsdiff := [] ; digs := convert(n, base, 10) ; for i from 2 to nops(digs) do digsdiff := [op(digsdiff), abs(op(i, digs)-op(i-1, digs))] ; od; add( op(i, digsdiff)*10^(i-1), i=1..nops(digsdiff)) ; end:
