The resulting number will always be a multiple of 9. Notice how for every multiple of 9, the symbol is the same.

but how does it now which one you pick?!?

there are only a certain # of possible numbers which you can possibly end up with. find a few and you will notice they all point to the same symbol (the symbols change each time you run the program though...)

The symbols change, and are in patterns of 9. Take a before-and-after screenshot when you click and you'll see.

it's a simple mathematical trick. Notice how there are more than 1 symbol of each in the chart. Now figure out the rest.
