- LOTTERY TOOL v 2.0
-
-
- For those of you that approach the lottery games with a more
- scientific view this is a tool that will help you evaluate the
- drawings and hopefully help you to pick some winning numbers. I
- have stuck with the popular numbers and have fared better than I
- did before using birthdays and such. Future versions will try to
- make winning number predictions.
-
- Menu functions :
-
- 1. Count number of hits.
-
- This scans the database entries and counts the
- number of times that a number is hit. After it
- scans, the Number and counts will appear on the
- left side. Scanning is shown in the upper right
- hand portion of the screen. (might be to fast to
- see.)
-
- 2. Pattern search.
-
- This operation allows you to see what the last
- numbers where that were hit and how many
- times. If you wish to see what the last group of
- lottery drawings count results you set the number
- of records and press enter. After the scan you
- will be prompted. Strike any key and it will
- continue to count backwards and display the
- numbers and counts per group. You can exit with
- escape any time.
-
- 3. Database
-
- This takes you to another submenu where you will
- create, edit, switch databases, or add records.
-
- 4. Add.
-
- This is where you add records to the database
- and edit them. When adding you will be shown what
- the last entry was and the date. The current database
- is of the Florida 6 Lotto drawings. You can however
- create another now in this version.
-
- 5. Repeat Combos.
-
- This section scans the database for recurring
- number combinations. Pairs, three matches, and
- four matches. As it is running it will be
- displaying the current numbers that it is
- scanning for and writing to a disk file named
- REPEAT.TXT. This will be in an ASCII text
- format so you can view it on screen or print
- it out at your leisure with almost any word
- processor.
-
- 5. Skip and Hit
-
- This section goes back thru the records and gives
- you a history of how many times a number is skipped
- after the number was called. The numbers are shown
- with the most recent drawing first then how many times
- the number was skipped after a hit. 0's represent
- a hit and the numbers represent the number of times
- that number has been skipped.
-
- 6. Exit
- Leaves the program.

-
-
- The Repeat combo scan is very fast compared to another Lottery
- program that I tried out. The other program was running for 12
- hours scanning a 235 record database and was only up to the number
- 10 combinations tying up my computer and printer. It also only
- outputed the scan to the printer.
- Lottery Tool scanned the database in just under 7 min. This
- comparison was done on a 386SX 20mhz with 1 meg. of cache + 1 meg.
- of EMS and a 40 meg MFM harddrive.
-
-
- Differences from older versions.
-
- Faster database load.
-
- Database create, edit, and change to functions added.
-
- *Note this version will not use the older versions storage
- file.
