Re^5: Determine steps between two numbers

I trust the math of it. It's not that I'm not confident that grizzley's solution is mathematically sound. Rather, I'm not confident in my own ability to fully understand that use of map, especially if I were to stop thinking about this and come back to it later. I also don't really see the need.
