My friend Colin shared this little number game on Facebook a while back as a game in which he was given a number, would do some magic with it, and then return a magic number. As a challenge to myself, I sought to automate the game. This is a result of that.
The game is simple: You provide the game an integer (positive or negative), and the game will find its magic number. Your task is to determine why the magic number is what it is.
