Specifically, "ching 77789" should (and does) give the hexagram for "The Taming Power of the Great", but some of the reading includes text for a different hexagram, "The Taming Power of the Small". This is just wrong. It may either be incorrect data or a buggy algorithm. I don't have access to source code anymore; someone else willing to look at this? Howard A.
