As this last class draws to a close, the time needed to finish the vector script will become available as soon as this weekend!

As this moment of getting my free time back approaches, I am thinking of how this new approach differs from the old approaches and I came up with... it captures the frequent pathways of numbers, not the numbers explicitly.

That means the old systems (literally all of them) were concerned with the numbers themselves, so a 5 then a 4 is different than a 2 followed by a 1... a one to one relation. the pathway, one lower to 1 higher or the opposite is a pathway and therefore can be a many to one relation from the lead in, and a one to many on the prediction as well. This type of relation will undoubtedly have a different distribution.

It will thus make picks a 2 layer process... generate the frequencies in pure vectors, then map these vectors to actual numbers in the final stage.

We start with 19 possible vectors and when picking the starting point we eliminate 9. Constraints will come into play to eliminate others, and ultimately the first valid vector to match when mapped to the actual digit will point to the pick digit.

We START with frequency because it is a solution space in which I am familiar, but this is certainly not the end...
