Yea I did a few of those, but when working with the bigger wheels it wasn't as efficient. for a 5if5 of 15 I would use a higher number (16+), but then the tickets aren't ordered all pretty since the 0 is replaced at the end of the line.

(Maybe it's an OCD thing, ha)

Not a hold up for me at all, just figured I'd give you a heads up

A short-term fix would be to use a 9 instead of the zero, and then paste the output into Notepad and do a Replace of all 9s with a 0.

Beats me, I haven't seen any.

I was just doing some research on different distribution patterns and I have been plugging some of the wheel formats into my application. I grab the wheel ticket formatting like:

0-1-2-3-4

..which basically stands for positions in the array not as actual numbers, so that's where the '0' helps me out

Are there other games other than pick3 and pick4 that include zero in their number pools? Ohio's Lot'Play had 00-99 in its number pool. It's wasn't that popular so it was discontinued after a year.

OK, thanks for letting me know.

Hey Todd, it seems like the full wheels (pick 5 and pick 6) don't consider 0 a valid entry, even when you change the minimum from 1 to 0. You can click quick picks a few times and it will throw a 0 in there, but when you hit 'Create Wheel' you get:

Error: You did not fill all the input spaces with numbers.

..And it removes 0 from the box you entered it in. Abreviated and Key wheels work fine with 0's for both pick 5 and pick 6 wheels.

FYI
