2) Write a program to check if a given number is a stepping number or not.
Note: A number is called a stepping number if every adjacent digit, except those
separated by commas, differs by 1. A stepping number can't be a 1-digit number; it must
be at least a 2-digit number. For example 45 and 43,545 are valid stepping numbers,
but 890,098 is not a stepping number because the difference between numbers 9 and 0
cannot be considered as 1.
