Here is a different way to look at it .....as a 5 number game using ODD /Even rather than 1 and 2 digits.

So.....we can see there are only 7 versions (Box wise) in a 5 postion game.

ODD / EVEN SETS

5 Number Games 6 Number Games

3 odd / 2 even 3 odd / 3 even

2 odd / 3 even 4 odd / 2 even

4 odd / 1 even 2 odd / 4 even

1 odd / 4 even 5 odd / 1 even

5 odd / 0 even 1 odd / 5 even

0 odd / 5 even 6 odd / 0 even

0 odd / 6 even
