Re: trippy as [censored] but i\'m sure someone can figure it out.....
the answer in white.
<font color="white"> there's an equivalence class for numbers with the same 10's digit here. ie you'll get the same result for 55 as you will for 56 as you will for 57 as you will for 58 etc - you'll be looking up 45 every time. and if you try it for the 60s, you'll be looking up 54 everytime. etc in multiples of 9. call these the "destination numbers". so each destination number gets the same randomly changing symbol, and the ball generates that symbol no matter what.
FWIW, here are the generation numbers. you'll notice they all have the same symbol in the applet.
10-19 = 9
20-29 = 18
30-39 = 27
40-49 = 36
50-59 = 45
60-69 = 54
70-79 = 63
80-89 = 72
90-99 = 81 </font>
