Step 5 of 7: From the Strokes, find any Digit Candidates:
 
The Strokes after Step 4:
 
The Digit Candidates:
 
Digit Candidates are Strokes that
connect together that may or may
not be an LED digit.
 
What happens in this step is relatively
complicated: we look at all of the H and
V strokes that are near to each other and
try to see if they connect, from end-to-end
.
 
If they connect, we group these Strokes
together and in a later step, see if they're
an actual digit. Most groups of Strokes turn
out to be not Digits.
