Todd, thank you for responding!

Continental United States on one page and individual states on another is just as beautiful , Todd.

Having just the United States page in front of you, you can tell which number is the most active or not.

I do this manually on mechanics paper and it does work for me. About once or twice a month straight, and boxed all the time.

Just last week I informed the kids in Illinois Pick-3 forum to be on the lookout for 854 because it hit 5 times in 30 days.

The main problem with doing a comparison like you're suggesting (illinois vs. rest of country) is that the scale will be so skewed that you will not get the comparitive analysis that you're hoping for.

There are a total of 59 Pick 3 drawings every day (including Canada and Puerto Rico). If just looking at the continental USA (not including Canada or Puerto Rico), there are 55 Pick 3 drawings.

Taking a best-case scenario, the comparison would be the results of two drawings (mid and eve) v... [ More ]

Hey, Todd

Scared me there for a minute . I thought it was deleted and you hated me because it involves more work for ya.

Suggestion: I m sure this was not the first time a Topic was moved over.

May I suggest that a note be put in its place that it was moved to another folder? It would stop people like me from crying for no reason.

Example: A question for Todd. (Moved to Suggestions Forums)

Anyway, I m glad you liked the view I ve put together. I m not a programmer as you can tell... [ More ]

Those stats could be loosely applied to Pick 4 in states which use ball drop since they likely rotate the same group of ballsets to perform Pick 3 and Pick 4 draws. This is how they do it in Georgia.

I've moved this over to the Suggestions forum.

That's a nice view, it makes a lot of sense. For Pick 3 it would obviously be 1,000 rows, but Pick 4 it might get a bit unwieldy, no? (10,000 rows)

I will keep this in mind when I look at stats next. It certainly seems feasible.

Didn t put in the percentage times drawn, but that would also be part of the program.

Also, it would be filtered midday, evening or both last 7 days, 30 days and so on.

Thanks again, Gordy

Hello, Todd

Have a question for ya?

Is there one and if not, a way to have a spreadsheet program made to show how many times a Pick-3 or Pick-4 number has come up?

What I m asking for is a history statistic page you can scroll back and forth of all the numbers in pick-3 and 4, updated daily.

Something like this in pick-3 for example, as individual states and all states combined.

All States Pick-3 Lottery Statistics
