Random isn't so good at solving random either. I would NEVER stick to a ridged formula...it has to vary just like the game but I do think math has it's place in the lottery.

Finally a member of the CLASS speaks and SPEAKS THE TRUTH..

Math cannot solve RANDOM!!!! There is no constant there to design a formula for and not to mention the lottery has more variables than you can count or keep up with.

I discovered that simple fact many,many,many,many years ago. To solve RANDOM, you have to learn to use RANDOM against itself more or less. You also can think of it this way, what happens if you put a ball of clay in your hand and close your hand, hard and tight

Grrr I tried to copy and paste....the line Unfortunately mathematics is of no great use..... It sounds like his mind is made up without even trying.

As for the number of mathematicians winning jackpots.......that's assuming ALL mathematicians actually play the lottery AND use mathematics to choose their numbers.

I think that the subconscious mind is the most powerful tool in the universe when it comes to random

prediction, learn to use it or fall victim to the odds. The conscious mind tends to try and place order to

everything but the subconscious works on a different level. If the subconscious can't work it out then

feed it more, less complicated data. Math will never slove random but that does not mean that it can't be

a helpful tool.

Hello,

coin, toss, lottery games, if you can establish two domains. The physical domain (forecast) and

psychic (random), the problem is how to match within single event (result of

lottery)!! If the event

could call sincron stico, the Union of the two,

Toss, the natural integers represent

simply a series of dots placed

In certain positions in a matrix or

line, however, precisely because the numbers are irrational, abyssal, and

unobservable, they are a good tool for lear... [ More ]

dr san,

How many mathematicians in the world?

How many of them have won jackpots?

Just something to think about.

Hello, coin toss, perhaps mathematics won't help

in lotteries, games because if demand close 100% in a single move, a forecast as

if it were an exact, whole time calculator,

But mathematics can help in the games until a certain point in

example 6/49 game, one can predict with confidence of 3 to 4 numbers, the rest

is random ate because can repeat two last dosorteio the three numbers, then the

base of game is this, if you can go up to a certain extent after is random, look

at... [ More ]

this is also the trick...In the USA where there is many ways to get rich an ingeneering degree or physicist or math degree will not make you rich what an ingeneer makes is not a lot but in other countries that do not have many ways to get rich and where things are cheap sort of speak an ingeneer or math related fields might be considered someone very affluent/well off/rich to those countries/region/Continent standards...

only in the USA can a singer make: $200 Million dollars in many regions

if a physicist laugh at a mathematician he/she will be making a fool of himself, he might laugh/mock at the mathematician ignorance maybe...you will be suprise though there are a few phycisist that do...

in this world, expect the unexpected...

listen to this something you might not know...even though knowing math might not make you win the lottery been proficient in math even if is another profession or job i will not say that 100% but like 90% of the time you earn more than your peers even if is just $750 more a month...everyone knows that...is like a status thing...Globally math is considered the hardest class, class that only geniuses take/will understand even if math is/might not the hardest class...same is with left handed people...

Sometimes maths is no use at all...!

How maths can't make you rich and famous

There are various ways that mathematics has been claimed to be able to make you rich and famous and I thought that it would be good to dispose of some of these as quickly as possible. One of the questions that I am frequently asked when people find out that I'm a professional mathematician (apart from when will you leave? ) is how can I choose my numbers for the National Lottery...
