I have played around with many prediction tools and IMHO none of them are useful for predicting lottery numbers.
Random by definition is not predictable and the problem is this. Most prediction tools can work out the the best
solution to play based on the games history but we should not expect random to follow the algorithms output. In
other words the best has nothing to with what will happen next. Yes, some predictors do hit now and then but
even broken clocks show the correct time twice each day.
With all that said I do think ones play can be enhanced and there are many things that will help us play smarter
lines but don't expect any of them to put you in the winners circle anytime soon.
What I have came to conclude is that to make a good prediction we need to work on the the less than random parts
of the data. All data can be broken down into parts and the converted data may contain information that is not random.
It's these parts that can be predicted and while any one may not give much of a reduction in the final output, combining
many of these can have a big effect on the overall possible.
Any data that falls somewhere short of random, predicting it becomes somewhat possible. Lets say we have 60 subsets
of converted data and 20% fall into the weak or less than random category. It's those values that we should be looking
to predict. Here we have another problem, 20% won't reduce the lines to a single prediction so we need many such sub
sets of data. The problem is not insurmountable because we can build more and more subsets to reduce the lines to a
playable amount.
After 25+ years analyzing random this is the sum of my findings. Don't try to predict the unpredictable, work on what is.
All prediction algorithms are useful if matched with the correct data provided the data is not random. To put this in simple
terms is about all I can do as I am not a mathematician. I often find my math skills lacking for many projects and have to hit
the books. I don't use mathematical terminology in my post. I learn what I need to understand the concept but just enough
so that I can code it. Teaching it is beyond my level of understanding.
