hello, you have to think of the number of previous drawings, as a seed for the next one

a tree takes time to bear fruit, taking it to the pattern of lotteries there. there is a certain number of draws that can supply the seed for the next one, that is, its cycle, you should not do with many

draws, you do not need to observe the cycle in each position, in general and in the position with position

Gwoof, I'll be honest. The only value in studying past drawing data is to check if the drawings are random. If you've satisfied yourself that the drawings are random (no obvious patterns nor biases toward certain numbers being drawn over others) then it doesn't matter how much drawing data you import into a prediction program because random processes are unpredictable.

You said, The reason I ask this question is I've noticed if you change the amount of history in some of the programs produced... [ More ]

I believe all the games here in Canada are computer drawn.

As I understand from what your saying is I should use all the history as long as it is not over 3 years.

dr san on the other hand says I should play the amount of history in the game your playing when all the numbers have hit at least once. Does that mean I'm looking for the number with the longest skip in the game?

That would mean the amount of history to play would change after every draw, would it not?

I'll echo what a lot of people here say, which is that you shouldn't use more than 3 years worth of data for a game using physical balls because lotteries replace their sets every few years or so. Some lotteries do it as often as every 2 years due to wear and tear on the balls as they bounce around in the machine. Data from a current ball set shouldn't be mixed with data from a retired ball set.

If the lottery uses a PRNG, there's no telling how often they repair, replace, or run diagnostics... [ More ]

hello, Gwoof, you can use the cycles in each lottery as a reference

the cycle is when, from the 1st draw on the list, count until the last number is drawn, eg if on a 6/49, the complete cycle took 37 draws until all the numbers happened at least once then

close to this is the number of draws to see your question, each lottery has its cycles

Is there a minimum or maximum amount of history one should use when doing your calculations for the different lottery games P2,P3,P4,P5,P6, or even the Keno games 70 80 numbers?

Does it depend on the how many numbers are drawn for each of the games?

Is there a formula one could use for each of the different games?

Or is it personal preference?

Thanks
