%N A walk based on the digits of E = exp(1) (A001113).

%C E = 2.718281828459045...

%C Between 2 and 7 we place 3, 4, 5 and 6.

%C Between 7 and 1 we place 6, 5, 4, 3 and 2.

%C Between 1 and 8 we place 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7.

%C Between 8 and 2 we place 7, 6, 5, 4 and 3, and so on.

%C This gives:

%C 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, ...

%C This could be called a walk (or promenade) on the digits of E.
