Grambulation Memes

Behold! The elusive "grambulation" operation - where the diamond symbol means "follow the path between numbers on the grid!" Looking at the examples: 1◊9=25 because there are 25 steps between 1 and 9 on this sneaky number spiral. Math pranksters have outdone themselves this time! The pattern continues for all examples: 97◊33=29 (29 steps), 23◊44=73 (yep, 73 steps), etc. It's like playing "connect the dots" but with numbers and calling it revolutionary mathematics. Next April Fools, I'll be introducing "triangulation" - the art of measuring how triangular your professor's beard is!
