A circle has 29 points arranged in a clock wise manner numbered
from 0 to 28, as shown in the figure below. A bug moves clockwise
around the circle according to the following rule. If it is at a point i
on the circle, it moves clockwise in 1 second by (1+r) places, where
r is the remainder (Possibly 0) when i is divided by 11. Thus if it is at
position 5, it moves clockwise in one second by (1+5) places to
point 11. Similarly, if it is at position 28 it moves (1+6) or 7 places to
point 6 in one second.
