PIKIT is an IBM OS/2(C) Presentation Manager program for tracking, analyzing
and playing all forms of lotteries, including play 5 and 6, daily play 3/4, Keno
and Power ball.
PIKIT provides a powerful Data Base for management of all lotteries played in
the United States and throughout the world today.
PIKIT is a native IBM OS/2(C) application. This means that the program does
not run under inferior secondary or emulated operating systems such as Windows
or DOS, but runs directly under the control of IBM OS/2. The result is faster,
more efficient performance, taking full advantage of the advanced and superior
capabilities of IBM OS/2(C).
One of the most exciting aspects of PIKIT is the graphical analysis objects.
These objects show the cycles of how numbers are drawn, the cycles of the hot
and cold rankings of numbers and the performance of optimizer. These objects
give the player the superior capability of selecting numbers most likely to be
drawn in the next drawing. Not only can DRAW numbers be analyzed but the HOT and
COLD rankings for the numbers can be analyzed.
In addition to graphical analysis, PIKIT now includes the Bucket Optimizer.
This feature automatically inserts numbers into a bucket from which tickets are
created. The numbers are inserted based on limits setup by the player that
define numbers that are coming "Due". The on-line helps describe this powerful
feature and how to use it. Included with the optimzer is an even more powerful
graph that visibly shows how the current optimizer values have performed in the
past.
PIKIT tracks any lottery in existence and some that have not been invented yet.
Some examples:
■ Play 5, 6, and 7 out of 10, and 3 to 10 out of 20, with or without single
or multiple alternate (supplementary/bonus) numbers.
■ Daily play 3 and play 4.
■ Power ball.
■ Keno or Win10.
With PIKIT you can:
■ Import current game files from ASCII (Text) files.
If you use a text file to keep lottery numbers, or can create an ASCII
file from games you are using, the text file can be easily imported into
the programs data base. The rules are automatically calculated and ready
to verify. Then start tracking (and winning).
■ Create new games of any kind.
■ Track any lottery.
■ Maintain game files of any length: add new entries, modify entries etc.
■ Analyze drawn numbers.
■ Analyze hot rankings.
■ Analyze cold rankings.
■ Analyze the optimizer performance.
■ Reveal what numbers come in with other numbers.
Find numbers automatically or manually that combine most with others
numbers.
■ Import previously played tickets files.
Check tickets that have been played with inferior lottery programs.
■ Create tickets for any lottery, manually or randomly.
■ Create tickets from a bucket of selectable numbers.
Use the Bucket Optimizer and Performance analyzer, an amazing and unique
method for inserting probable winning numbers into the bucket.
Automatic wheeling makes it possible to generate all possible ticket
combinations of numbers from the bucket.
■ Select numbers for the bucket one at a time, randomly or with the
OPTIMIZER.
■ Maintain any number of ticket files.
■ Add, erase or alter tickets in the ticket files.
■ Compare tickets against any draw or range of draws for winners.
Compare with or without supplementary or bonus numbers.
Compare play 3/4 tickets in straight, mixed, front pair or back pair
order.
■ View or change game parameters.
If a favorite game was changed from pick 39 to pick 26 just change the
game parameters and continue using the program.
■ Object windows remain in the position in which they were last moved or
sized.
All or part of the desk top is used as desired.
■ Change Fonts and Colors.
■ Use the keyboard.
The program provides efficient use of the keyboard. Using the keyboard can
be faster than using a pointing device.
Examples show a variety of lotteries the program uses.
An abundance of on-line helps are conveniently available from any object
The helps provide detailed information for all features.
Included is an information file easily accessed without loading the program.
The file is opened with OS/2 View which can then be viewed or printed, all or
in part.
