I was wondering if I had to specify a balance scale as opposed to a spring scale.
Very Clever...

I was thinking about this last night while I was sleeping.
What does the following cyclic pattern of numbers represent? 0 1 3 2 6 7 5 4 0 |

Starting with the top number, it's how many steps forward I take, followed by how many backward, how many forward again, backward...etc and so on.
