Ok. As I was watching the number 23 last summer i was thinking to my self, Hmm...I wonder if I can find something like that. I spent the next two days trying to find something.

I came upon this algorithm that works with all of the numbers greater than 9.

First you take all of the digits and add them together.

Next you subtract that number from the original number.

Finally that number is divisible by nine.

Here's an example.

56
5+6=11
56-11=45
45/9=5

This works for all numbers greater than nine and whole. i don't understand what it's called. I believe someone may have came up with ti first. If they did i'd like to know what it's called. Please tell me that it doesn't always work. I've been obsessing over this since last june. Please help me.

lemme google it. hmm what to type.
power of nine? XD

meh i googled nine
and the only thing that comes up in is wikipedia, not what you have, but close enough
2 × 9 = 18 (1 + 8 = 9)
but we all knew that
its called base 9
maybe what you have is something derived of base nine.
name it. XD

Ok then i shall call it
NUMBER NINE ALGORITHM (C) Transcendental Programming(C).
That means the entire Algorithm. That's right I'm going to go get (C) tomorrow. Ok since I discovered, No page shall ever appear on Wikipedia, and it shall appear on no other site except this one. Also it is my Algorithm.

So does it always work. I must know. I mean I think that it's pretty cool and all. but does it always really work. I know that for example that it's probably just using some basic Elementary Number Theroy stuff. But since I haven't studied that course, I have no idea. The all caps is so that people can unleash the power. so this kind of scares me. Does it always work? I must find a way that it doesn't. Every time I see a number I try it on my algorithm like this one on the bottom of post reply page ness.

16834 -(1+6+8+3+8+4)=16812
16812/9=1868.

Ahh it works again.

1234 -(1+2+3+4)= 1224
1224/9= 136

Oh snap it works again.

Please stop the madness.

Excuse me? Did I hear somebody say "stop the madness"?

Never stop the madness. Never.

Write a program to go from 9 until you stop it or it finds one that doesn't work. Run it overnight. I think if it gets to 1324987520398475 or anything it probably always works. =P

Ok, I guess that I will but the largest number that I've ever tried was on Yahoo messenger and I believe that the number was 323456765. And um as far as i know the calculator can only do numbers up to nine digits and considering that I'm not that skilled in any other Languages. I can exactly do that. Primarily because i don't have any really good assemblers. Wait JavaScript should work. Does anyone know any good JavaScript assemblers? They also need to be free. The JDK is too large for me to download on Dial up so i'd like somethign under 12 meg. Mainly because I've seen it work with numbers up to one thousand digits. Sadly I can't work that well with JavaScript. I done the algorithm about I'd say about 1432 times thus far. I'm hoping that I'd find a way to stop it but since i can't find a number that it wont work with. I guess that I'm out of luck. Oh well. To bad for me. I guess that my obsession shall always live on in side of my mind. This is also a reason that my Pokemon game is still in the early Alpha version.

I have been. Right now I'm about one fifth of the way through the battle engine. It's already 12,000 bytes. It's really large. I'm currently working on the fun reduncies of programming all of the moves. I'm going to allow every pokemon, and every move in the original game. I was just wondering though. Should I include the HM 2, Fly for Charizard. Because in the later games he can Fly but in the original game he can't. So I was just wondering what everyone thought. I should have the Beta Version up including all of the Menus, Battle Engine, And full maps up to Mt. Moon, on about October 12th I'm hoping. It will be awesome in my opinion. Oh yeah, and thanks Hydralisk for being a Beta tester for me. Also I hope that you do realize that my last version that will having every thing working will be the Omega Version. That's right I'm going to go through the entire Greek alphabet.
