I = # of lit - # of unlit (indicators).
Negative numbers can be 3ven and even.
0 is both 3ven and even.
- Perform a lookup in the left table using each digit to get three numbers.
- If no (RCA or PS2) port exists, use
o#+B instead of the shaded numbers. - Alternatively, use the left, then the right table below to get the numbers.

| #≥8 | #*2 |
| RCA or PS2 | # |
| no (RCA or PS2) | o#+B |
0 is both 3ven and even.
Step #2
After final lookup, modulo by 10.
