Outch! Just looking at your code tired me out: when you gonna switch to Ubasic?
My code is about 20% of yours.
I wrote a looper, keeping the 15 restricted to the last 5 numbers,
calculating the 15th (120 - 1to14).
Also programmed these restrictions:
- 2 consecutives side by side possible only once
- no doubles side by side (like 3,6)
This is kinda interesting; noticed from the results;
labelling the 15 balls from a to o:
(a at top, o bottom right corner) and looking at
"6ball triangles" like a-b-c-d-e-f or b-d-e-g-h-i,
the top number always equal the 2 bottom corner
difference; like d=m-k.
That's in every case EXCEPT the f-i-j-m-n-o triangle.
