Lucky Name Numbers - The method
Many ancient philosophers believed that everything in the universe is made up of and
affected by numbers. Different societies developed different methods of analysis to
calculate if individual pieces of information such as name and birthdate could be used to
predict how lucky someone would be in life.
One of the greatest mathematicians, Pythagoras developed a method that could be applied
to anyone’s name to calculate their lucky name number.
The Pythagorean system allocated a number to each letter of the alphabet and these
numbers were used to calculate a single digit number from the letters in a person’s name:
|=======================================|
| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 |
| a b c d e f g h i |
| j k l m n o p q r |
| s t u v w x y z |
|=======================================|
For example, Eleanor Wiseman would be:
|===============================================================|
| 5 3 5 1 5 6 9 5 9 1 5 4 1 5 |
| E l e a n o r W i s e m a n |
|===============================================================|
To carry out the calculation all the numbers for the first name are added together as are all
the numbers for the surname.
= {5 + 3 + 5 + 1 + 5 + 6 + 9} + {5 + 9 + 1 + 5 + 4 + 1 + 5}
= 34 + 30
These numbers are added again until the answer is a single digit.
= 7 + 3
= 10
= 1
So Eleanor’s lucky name number would be 1.
Lucky Numbers App
The app uses this method to calculate your lucky number. All you have to do is enter you
first and last name as it tells you in the app, it will do all the hard maths work for you.
Don't worry if you have a middle name - I thought about it. The app asks you a question if
you have a middle name, if you want to enter it simply press 'y' for yes, if you don't - well,
no worries, press 'n' for no and it won't ask you for it. If you really curious what values your
names sum up to the app creates a text file LOG.txt in the same location - This files displays
some of the answers for calculations. I would say worth having a look :) However if you are
into programming have a read through my code and tell me what you think about it.
----------------CHANGELOG-------------
