Heads or TailsReply
I understand the rationale of using 50/50. It is the simplistic term for saying 'it will occur, or it won't.' Those are the possibilities in a singular event. In that light, lottery drawings are not a singular event no more than three people consecutively tossing a coin. We accept it as singular for a matter of convenience. But in reality a lottery drawing it a short series of multipe events taken as a singular, the same as if you toss a coin, then I toss a coin, and a third person tosses

What Does It Take To Win (Mathematically Speaking?)Reply
Maybe the abstract to the study will ring some bells! (If you see something here in the abstract or above in the excerpt that strikes you as even remotely connected to the kinds of thought processes you engage in to design or critique a number selection system, it might be a starting point for a question. I would hope it at least prompts you to click on the link above and READ more of the study.) ABSTRACT Ecologists working in conservation and resource management are discovering the imp

same exact pick 3 numbers played in the exact same order, for eve and night what are the odds?Reply
The probability of 858 repeating in evening, given that it occurred it in the morning is 1/1000, as db101 reported. This is what we call a conditional probability, P(B|A). Event A is 858 occurred in the morning, and B is 858 occurred in the evening. The | means given that . Clearly P(B) = P(B|A) in this case, meaning they are independent. What about the joint probability of ANY winning numbers from the morning repeating in the evening? That's also 1/1000, but how we get there is slightly dif

How many repeat combinations in Cash 5Reply
It was stated earlier that out of 8100 drawings (or thereabouts) of CT Cash 5 there were 93 instances of a set of numbers being drawn twice and 3 instances of a set of numbers being drawn 3 times. I ran my own random simulation of 1000 repetitions of 8100 drawings of the CT Cash 5 Game (5/35) in order to compare with the actual results reported. The event of 93 instances of sets of numbers being drawn exactly twice was at the 27.5 percentile of the 1000 simulations, so somewhat below average

The Uncertainty principle states that you can never really understand the true nature of an event, because the very act of studying the event can change the outcome. ~Werner Heisenberg, famous for the Uncertainty principle in Quantum Mechanics. What do you think? eddessaknight

BETA - Neural Network in Java. Numbers PredictorReply
The idea of machine learning is to help you decrease the marginal error with respect to an output of events given the likelihood of another event occurring. The law of average indicates that the principle that supposes most future events are likely to balance any past deviation from a presumed average - something that machine learning allows to visualize easier, rather than manually filling pages and pages of manual statistical calculations. In my subjective opinion, Randomness doesn't exist.

Math or Data help pleaseReply
We have thought about this question, too. When is the optimal time to play knowing when something has just happened? Well, it does look like the optimal time is just after when the event has occurred. However, there is another aspect of the event happening again, it's the Potential Occurrence Probability. This just simply means how long does it take, just after the event occurred, for it to happen again. The Occurrence Probability is complement the Reoccurrence Probability. T

Mathematics and the LotteryReply
With pareto's law, then we could see patterns, don't try to predict numbers, but yes defaults, the numbers are there or not, understands!!!, perhaps sera must construct a calculator for the 80/20. We will be the first to see this system But will be a day of hard work, analysis, because we have the fact of repetition of numbers as the size of the lottery, jking what intrigues me is the following, example, you make some 200 games in 49/6 will hit 4 numbers (80%) with very often, and also play

Determinism vs Randomness and ChanceReply
Hind site? Is that a chair or a sofa? Maybe you meant Hindsight which means realization of the possibilities after the occurrence. JIMMY, HOMBRE, we all have those 'if I knew then what I know now moments!!!!' I had one this morning! When I opened the shed, the left rear lawn tractor tire was FLAT. If I'd have known that, I WOULDN'T HAVE OPENED THE SHED. That's Hindsight. But with all my determination was I going to let it stop me? Well........yeah. Determination is a good thing

How many combos in sequence for 5/36 matrix?Reply
The probability of such a consecutive sequence is 1/11781, which is 32/COMBIN(36,5). The cumulative probability of the 1st occurrence of this event on drawing 7722 or before, according to the Negative Binomial distribution, is 48.1%, which is close to the median (50%). There is nothing particularly unusual about what occurred.
