That's all well and good if a person can lock in on the first and last number, I find it difficult enough to
hit the first and last group and would hate to try and pin it down to one number each. If I choose 5
groups to play then my total sets is equal to 4X4X4X4X4=1024. Since I have 4 numbers in each group
except group 10 then I have 16 possible combinations of first and last number pairs. I can sometimes
remove one number from some of the groups which reduces the total sets before I begin to filter. I also
have a multi-string wheel that can accept up to 15 numbers in each string. This works just like the groups
but is not tied to specific numbers and is a little more flexible. There are many ways to build a subset of
numbers that makes them easier to handle and I guess one method is as good as any other but the main
goal should always focus on it's predictability. I don't believe in predicting numbers but I do believe that
certain secondary data is very predictable. My games first number can range from 1 into the 30's so even
the best thought out methods will still be subject to randomness. Once you have your subset then one can
or should use as much math as possible to reach a playable amount of sets. I am writting a paper on random
sampling and if people would look at the lottery drawing as taking random samples from the whole matrix
and consider a few things in the process it would change the way they play. I was never big on using past
data to predict what will happen next but have updated my views in this area. Much information can be
gleemed if you know what to look for. The next draw will come from the whole universe of sets but the past
data can give you some expectation as to what it might be. Just like taking random samples from a production
line one can gain some valuable information. The method the balls or numbers are drawn is not important, it
does not matter how they are mixed just as long as they are mixed well. Using random sampling has been
around for a long time and that's because it works. Most assembly lines for mass produced products count on
it for quality control.
