frequency is a good indication-- most programs have that feature-- and it clearly plots followers---ie---if a number occured in a drawing-- say the number 27 for example then u can see what kind of numbers get to be drawn with it..Its a great tool.cheers

I think you're trying to examine the length of time between games in which each number showed up. I think most of the lottery software provide a current snapshot indicating how long ago each number was drawn. I looked at manually maintaining how frequently each number was drawn out of the last three months and out of the last twenty games. I also kept a running statistic of the distribution of the vertical, or time, gaps for each number, and the median for that number. The purpose of maintain... [ More ]

Is what you're asking is how many draws it took for 37 to repeat...say on 7/1/05 X-X-X-X-X-37and then on 7/4/05 37-X-X-X-X-X was drawn. Diff between draws is 3 This is what you're asking for, right

I could see some use for that feature, for example in the last PowerBall drawing 07//02/05 the winning numbers were 09 10 29 39 52 +20. the 09 hit 3 previous draws, 10 hit 4 previous draws, 39 hit 5 previous draws, 29 hit 11 previous draws and 52 hit 14 previous draws which means all 5 winning numbers were included in the previous 14 drawings. Checking the whole file reveals that happened about 25% of the time and the number pool was 33-44 numbers. Knowing that one could just cover the most li... [ More ]

You know upon reflection I don't see much use for that as a simple filter at all (I can't use it like that), but as a complex filter and implemented by a computer program that would cross index all numbers relationships in that way and maybe others then maybe there could be some use, it would of course need charts or something showing the numbers' relationships.It's way too complex and requires complex software so it's not my kind of filter at all.Mine are very simple (most of them). I shot deal... [ More ]

Lets see if I got it. The info being searched for is..How many games after 1 was picked did it take for 2,3,4,5...... to occur?How many games after 2 was picked did it take for 1,3,4,5...... to occur?Is that right

Lotto Pro 2005 software ..... they have what you are asking for and are set up for the UK Lottery.Yes their black and white chart has the past 25 drawings listed and on that chart there is an ongoing count for every number until it hits and is marked with ## then the count begins again.You might try downloading a trial of their software and see if it gives you what you're looking for. I don't use it for specifically selecting numbers but it is a well written software I use to look at trends, pla... [ More ]

I am a filter person and sometimes develop new filters on the fly, is a skill that many people can develop themselves. It might make up for my having basic math skills. My knowledge of the nature of filters is awesome if I say so myself.

Most of my filters might be fairly simple, but they are very good and highly efective when used right, a few of them are more complicated and harder to use and understand (that is, some of the secret filters, but many are very very simple, secret or not

Now that I think about it your filter is also brand new like mine and opens up many new filter ideas on top of all the other ones that I just had and not just for jackpot type of games either.As to formulas, if you mean Exel and or math formulas, I neither have nor mess with any of that, my math skills are just basic ones and also don't do any programming.I just developed many or several brand new filters, yes, just now at this time, that is what I just did.No formulas per se or whatever really...

And this last post of yours, game me your own filter also.Thank you for that one too.

While I don't understand your particular space difference filter, thanks to reading your last post and to my being very in-tune for possible new filters, I have just developed some more brand new space difference gap filters on top of those that I already had, it took me only the time that I spent reading your last post to right away develop them, they seem to be completely brand new (maybe)(for jackpot game filters) and they might be good.You and Bowldog unintentionaly have helped me develop...

Thank you konane I guess I would try Lotto Pro and see if it has what I am searching for

Sorry RJOH, I guess I am not explaining things well here, am I? The gaps or spacing I am referring to is the number of draws between when a game or draw that had 37 in it was played and contrast that with another game with 49 in the draw. So in this case 6 spaces or gaps would mean 37 was played in one game then there was 6 games and the 7th game carried 49. I hope you understand me so far.

RJOh — Tue, 05 Jul 2005 19:32:03 GMT

I guess I too didn't understand what you were saying because the numbers 37 and 49 have a gap(space) or difference of 11 or 12.RJOh

I am playing the pick 6 which is the British lottery system. To give an example of what I need, say I have two numbers 37 and 49 and the gaps or spacing between them is 6. My system is to check the previous lottery numbers or the history to see where this phenomena occurred. The way I have previously done this is to laboriously count through the previous numbers till my brains hurt. I am looking for a way to get the computer to count and locate the gaps and spacing I specify it to search for bet... [ More ]

If you're asking about how many drawings have lapsed between when a particular number hit in a previous drawing and now hits, Lotto Pro 2005 has that feature built in under Statistics and is called Hit Sequence Chart. Shows it for each draw in black and white chart or color graph. Very helpful.

I do not fully understand your intent, can you provide a visual guide as to what you are trying to accomplish. Perhaps I might have something that could do the trick in Excel. Also, what game are you referencing (pick 3, 4, 5, 6)?Sir Metro

RJOh — Tue, 05 Jul 2005 18:56:09 GMT

A lot of lottery programs have that feature, it's called gaps and ranges. The most common gap is 0 or a difference of one between adjacent numbers in the same drawing and the most common range depends on the size of the number pool.RJOh

In Excel if you want to count columns try this:If you have a value or starting point in a cell like thisA B C D E1Then in Col B enter this formula: =IF(A1=1, X ,+A1+1)This will give you a point to start conting fromA B C D E1 XSo then in Col C repeat the formula =IF(B1= X ,1,+B1+1)This will check if there is a X in the prior column cell or add to the current value.Copy this across as many cells as you need and the last column will have your count.Hope this helps.

I had those Ideas a long time ago and have also several variations of it, I am not a computer programmer myself, but have a friend who is, but mostly do those things by hand ( I say do, but I mean would) I don't bother much with those filters yet, but will later, I develop ideas and then put them aside, since I have so many of them, but might get back to them later (sooner or later maybe).Good luck and good thinking and don't ask me about my own ideas on that, I put a Maxwell Smart silent shield...

Anyone know a Counting Formula or System?

energy — Tue, 05 Jul 2005 17:23:18 GMT

Does anyone know of a formula or system for counting the spacing between numbers. I use the counting method to determine the relationship between various numbers in the lottery and it can be very time consuming. I know with the computer it would be easy but it is proving very elusive to come across a system or formula that can do the counting for me. I tried using excel but it only counts spaces between rows or columns on the same line which is quite limited. I am looking for something that can
