Here's a PRIME target for all you enthusiasts.

[PAB]

I came across this the other day and thought I would share it with you.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_prime_numbers

I wouldn't like to go through and work out all those scenarios for each set of Lotto draws drawn to date .

Neither would I. It must have been a rainy day when somebody invented a happy number. Then someone who doesn't get out much, decided to list the happy primes. I love numbers provided there is a reason and a use for a concept, but happy numbers and sad numbers? Somebody is having a laugh. I get prime numbers, I can see their practical use in encryption technology. I'm not going to google happy numbers, but some smart Alec will have thought of a use for them.
There's something quite appealing about happy lottery numbers though.

Hello Pab:

I am glad to see your new mail.

Thank you for the link, though I,personally, do not use the prime numbers because, I believe, that they can to clash with the "odds" condition (it´s only my opinion).

Thank you.

Regards

PAB,

Wonderful find! Who would have thought that there are so many varieties of Prime numbers!

Maybe for lottery we should look into the Lucky Primes or the Fortunate Primes. I clicked on the Sexy Primes and those pairs look like they might make an interesting investigation for Lotto along with their related group the Swinging Primes. Or maybe we should check out the Happy Primes (Frank's favourite) or the Harmonic Primes to harmonize our picks with the Universe.

However, beware, under no circumstances should you use the Annihilating Primes or your lotto ticket will vapourize the minute it is printed!

Yes, there can be an overlap so I can see what you are saying.

Hi Icewynd,

Blushing Modestly

I was inspired by the subject matter. Who doesn't love prime numbers?

 

[PAB]

Hi Icewynd,

...Who doesn't love prime numbers?

It is not until you find something like this that you realise how extensive the world of Mathematics is.
I love numbers, I always have and always will, little grey cells permitting that is of course.
I have always been reasonable at Mathematics, even when I was at school, over thirty years ago now, and if I could go back I would love to do my utmost to do even better and become a Mathematician, not going to happen I know.

Oh well! back to the land of dreams .

Has anyone used any of the number series (Primes, Fibonacci, etc.) in ways other than for picking numbers for play?

The reason that I am asking is that it occurred to me the other day that the Fibonacci sequence (0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,31,34, etc.) looked a lot like many of the skip patterns exhibited by a draw. Primes would work for skips too. Probably Delta or gap patterns would appear in these series as well. I'm not sure how one could use these for prediction, though.

Anyway, just another idea popping out of my febrile brain! Take it for what it is worth.

Too many of them have a low number count to be of any real use and are therefore irrelevant really. I set them up when the Lotto first started, and as you can see I was very keen to find patterns in analysis then, I just keep them in my DataBase because, well I don't know really, probably just because they have always been there.

While I'm not going to post skip statistics for all 155 of PAB's number series I did do a little more examination of the Fibonacci Series patterns in the skips of the drawn numbers.

For the last 1644 draws of my Ontario49 Lottery:

Fibonacci Skips __With Bonus __Without Bonus
0____1____2
1___15___45
2__130__242
3__331__481
4__506__519
5__426__288
6__195___57
7___30____0

So all 6 drawn number skips will be Fibonacci numbers about once every couple of months and 5/6+B will occur about every 8 or 9 draws, say once a month.

Just another piece of Lotto trivia to file away!
