Wow, I shouldn't be answering this without looking at the code, but what
is "cell" good for? you get the following values
flag:cell
1 : 32
2 : 16
3 : 10.66...
4 : 8
5 : 6.4
etc.
Seems like an odd series of numbers...
But assuming that it's a good thing, and that's what you want, why not
use 32/(flag+1) thus changing the table to be
0:32
1:16
2:10.66...
.

Just a bit confused,
Ray
P.S. I'm a math major. These things bother me.
