Can you guess the output of this program ?

The puzzle is simple,
You have a program, you have to guess the output of this program, its not as simple as it looks.

public class Test
{
    int arrInitial[] = { 62, 99, 22, 115, 120, 98, 121, 103, 60, 114, 91, 107, 124, 100, 78, 111, 40, 119, 27, 101, 77,
                    112, 52, 51, 91 };
    int operand[] = { 82, 45, 54, 41, 25, 41, 89, 58, 89, 68, 45, 73, 11, 21, 43, 22, 66, 92, 53, 69, 34, 56, 66, 44,
                    58 };

    int decider = 1;
    int coder = 1;
    int sum = 1;
    int counter = 0;

    private void display(int value)
    {
        value = (coder * decider) + sum + value;
        sum = (sum + value);
        coder = (coder + decider);

        switch (value)
        {
            case 2:
                newFunction();
                display(20);
                newFunction();
                display(-30);
                newFunction();
            case 25:
                newFunction();
                display(-80);
                newFunction();
            case 1:
                newFunction();
                display(18);
                newFunction();
        }
    }

    private void newFunction()
    {
        int no = Math.abs(decider + coder + sum + counter++);
        switch (no)
        {
            case 330:
                no += 4;
                break;
            case 42:
                no += 5;
                break;
            case 170:
                no -= 3;
                break;
            case 169:
                no -= 1;
                break;
        }
        no %= Math.pow(decider, 782) + decider + 11;
        System.out.print((char) (arrInitial[no * 2] ^ operand[no * 2]));
    }

    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        new Test().display(0);
    }
}

You may use paper or calc, etc. If you want to know whats the right answer or you want to cheat, just run this program

All the best

for those requiring help:


Math.pow(x,y);
x to the power of y:
eg: Math.pow(2,3) = 2 to the power of 3 = 8
---------------------

x^y
This is called XORing, refer to XOR
eg: 12^23=27
---------------------


int x = a + b++;

is equivalent to

int x = a + b;
b = b + 1;
---------------------


post here for any more assistance...
