okay.. now so.. what is the crucial step in this whole thing?

is it generating random numbers with random operators i between them and evaluating whether the solution given by the user is correct and count the number of correct responses??

By crucial step i meant the logic on how he calculates the percentage of people below.. how it changes when the operators used are changed.(is it dependent on operators in the first place? ) and when the range is changed? etc..
