Why not go for base 2 with these base dependent sequences?

Let n be an integer written in decimal base:
 n=d0+d1*10^1+...+d(L-1)*10^(L-1).
Let s(k) = -1^k.
a(n) is the numerator of sum(k=0, L-1, d(k)*10^e(k)).

I guess base 10 hides whatever one could possibly find about the
sequences.  Whether the sequences are interesting would more likely
show in base 2.

In such cases one should IMHO discuss on seqfan before submitting.
