1069 The Black Hole of Numbers （20 分）
For any 4-digit integer except the ones with all the digits being the same, if we sort the digits in non-increasing order first, and then in non-decreasing order, a new number can be obtained by taking the second number from the first one. Repeat in this manner we will soon end up at the number 6174 – the black hole of 4-digit numbers. This number is named Kaprekar Constant.

For example, start from 6767, we’ll get:

7766 - 6677 = 1089
9810 - 0189 = 9621
9621 - 1269 = 8352
8532 - 2358 = 6174
7641 - 1467 = 6174
… …
Given any 4-digit number, you are supposed to illustrate the way it gets into the black hole.

Input Specification:
Each input file contains one test case which gives a positive integer N in the range (0,10
​4
​​ ).

Output Specification:
If all the 4 digits of N are the same, print in one line the equation N - N = 0000. Else print each step of calculation in a line until 6174 comes out as the difference. All the numbers must be printed as 4-digit numbers.

题目总体来说不难，只要注意一点，在n为6174的时候，如果是用while循环中判断的话，会导致6174没有输出，所以必须在里面进行判断。还有一点就是格式错误…这个是真的看不出来其中是不是有空格，所以只能自己测试…
