If I'm right, every number you can come with after going through the steps they require the answer is always divisible by 9 so every multiple of nine has the same symbol.

I may be wrong, but I stared at a similar program for quite a while trying to figure it out.

Hmmm... that's pretty clever. One thing I noticed is that the symbols change for the numbers every time the game is run. I'll have to look at it again later tonight...

[EDIT] Ah, combine what Dan said with what I observed and presto... the solution. Still a pretty clever game.

Yep, The changing symbols makes it look like the results are random.
With out the change, you would notice it being the same symbol pretty quick.
