Remember seven of nine ? The code is based on those two numbers.

The difference of the squares are squares of numbers, of which the
difference is 32. The square of nine is 81, and the square of seven
is 49, and the difference between them is 32, which solves the puzzle
on a lateral basis. However two other pairs of numbers satisfy the
condition that their subtracted squares also equal 32. Those are six
and two or 36 -4 =32; quite irrevalent here as such a pairing scheme
would never work to solve the puzzle, thus it is obvious.

The method of the code works both on a horizontal and vertical basis
as dual additions of sums from the outside edge inwards. On the
bottom half of the chart the the vertical sums add to 33. That is
part of the vertical code, but the horizontal is easier to follow as
a continuous rule. Every move after 32 will be matched to an outwards
formed sum adding to seven squared or 49. Those movements will be
exhausted when the pairings of numbers can no longer add to 49, but
must instead add to 81. The pairings in each case go up on one side
and down on the other, thus the pattern of future moves based on the
correct past moves as a following movement should be easily seen.

With correct pairings they do. WHAT A GREAT THING IT WOULD BE IF
PEOPLE WERE LIKE THAT AND WE ONLY NEEDED TO BE PAIRED WITH OUR ANGEL
OR SOUL MATE?
