%N First differences of A007770 (happy numbers).

%C El-Sedy and Siksek show that there exist arbitrarily long runs of consecutive integers that are happy numbers. So this sequence contains arbitrarily long runs of 1's.

%F a(n) = A007770(n+1) - A007770(n), where A007770(n) is the n-th happy number.
