5-12 means there are 5 occurrences of the paired
combination 1 and 2 regardless of the order in which
they appear so 12 is the same as 21 for counting
purposes.

And thus 3-45 means there are 3 occurrences of the
paired combination 4 and 5.

Lastly it appears that the routine counts only paired
combinations within different lines otherwise we would
have gotten 2 occurrences of 00
