it is not necessarily always a kangaroo (it could be a kuala or something like that), but apart from that, it is a good trick

That takes advantage of multiples of nine having digits that add to nine. There's no reason why it couldn't also include 1 and 10.

if you multiply 1 by 9 you get 9...and one of the steps of the program aks the reader to add each digit together..9 is a one digit number...but 10 would work u are right
