Checking -3:

-3	|	4	37	6	-27
	|		-12	-75	207
	--------------------------------------
		4	25	-69	180

Since the last entry in the last row is NOT a 0, -3 is NOT a zero

================================================================

Checking 5:

5	|	4	37	6	-27
	|		20	285	1455
	--------------------------------------
		4	57	291	1428

Since the last entry in the last row is NOT a 0, 5 is NOT a zero


================================================================

Checking -8:

-8	|	4	37	6	-27
	|		-32	-40	272
	--------------------------------------
		4	5	-34	245

Since the last entry in the last row is NOT a 0, -8 is NOT a zero
================================================================

Checking 8:

8	|	4	37	6	-27
	|		32	552	4464
	--------------------------------------
		4	69	558	4437

Since the last entry in the last row is NOT a 0, 8 is NOT a zero
================================================================

Checking -4:

-4	|	4	37	6	-27
	|		-16	-84	312
	--------------------------------------
		4	21	-78	285

Since the last entry in the last row is NOT a 0, -4 is NOT a zero
