It will guess your number

no matter what combination you use the answer comes out to 9-- I have heard of this in the past
 
Not specifically 9; actually an integer multiple of 9. If you'll notice, all the symbol charts have the same symbol on 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, etc.
 
59 is the number you guessed or the final numbe ryou have after your calculation?

59: 5+9=14 59-14=45
Your final number will always be a multiple of 9.

If you look at all of the symbols for the mutliples of 9 they are the same. The symbols just rotate at random each time you do it.
