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 A296891-A296894 partition the natural numbers. See the guides at A296712 and A296882.

EXAMPLE
The base-13 digits of 59672 are 2,1,2,1,2; here #(pits) = 2 and #(peaks) = 1, so 59672 is in the sequence.
