Neat program idea, but...
Uh, pardon me, but are there not supposed to be 20 values?  Two are
used for each digit. yes?  I am guessing, as I do not know what the
tone values are actually supposed to be (of the top of my head :-),
but as I recall, each column of digits
uses the same tone. Each row uses the same tone. Guessing
would seem to indicate that one of the 697's is missing,
as digits 1,2,3 across would share the same row tone. yes?
