I've seen worse cursor followers. It's the sound on there that is driving me nutty.

 		roachspeak calculations
OK. Here's my go at it. Don't know if it will lead anywhere, but what the hey.

Assumptions:
FEED # = add # to B (at the expense of A)
ASSEMBLE # = add # to A
ITERATE = Take 1*A from A and add to B
REITERATE = Iterate again.
AND = +

SARAH[LEGS] would end up with a value of 01101110 (as SARAH[LEGS] is constantly kept at 0 with the REITERATE command, but there is no final REITERATE after the last ASSEMBLE).
Assuming that is binary, the decimal equivalent is 110.
Assuming it's hexidecimal, we get 17830160.

Steve is harder, as there are quite a few spots where #s could be either binary or hexidecimal.
Final value (in decimal), assuming:
-they are binary where possible: 82792
-they are hexidecimal: 18044148
-they are what they appear most likely to be (bin or hex): 82792

So
STATE SARAH = (dec)110 or (dec)17830160
STATE STEVE = (dec)82792 or (dec)18044148
STATE SARAH AND STEVE = (dec)82902 or (dec)35874308 or multiple other combinations if not ALL are binary that appear to be binary or if SOME are hex that appear to be binary, etc etc.

If somebody could please double check my calculations and numbers, it would be greatly appreciated as I'm punching these in while trying to do 3 other projects here at home and watch Star Wars Ep. 5 on the side Wink
