COMMENTS
A pit is an index i such that d(i-1) > d(i) < d(i+1); a peak is an index i such that d(i-1) < d(i) > d(i+1). The sequences A296867-A296869 partition the natural numbers. See the guides at A296882 and A296712.

EXAMPLE
The base-5 digits of 277 are 2,1,0,2; here #(pits) = 1 and #(peaks) = 0, so 277 is in the sequence.
