Position mean for PB

Hi Bertil,
You might find your answer here:
http://www.numbersplanet.com/powerball/
Or, if you have the data entered into Excel or another spreadsheet program, just enter the formula
=MEAN(A1:A1000)
substituting the starting and ending cells of your data where I have put A1:A1000
Hope this helps and good luck shooting for that $600 Million!

I had in mind the theoretical mean after all possible PB numbers have
been drawn once. E.g the lowest # in position 1 is 1 and the highest is 55.
Any # from 1 to 55 can be drawn for position 1. And so on. Thus the would be a distribution curve for each position, with a mean and a std.dev.

Hi Bertil,
Can you tell me where I can download the FULL Lotto history for PowerBall please?
Although I live in the UK, if I can get the full data history I might be able to work something out for you.

12:45, restate my assumptions.
(1) Mathematics is the language of nature.
(2) Everything around us can be represented and understood through numbers.
(3) If you graph the numbers of any system, patterns emerge. Therefore, there are patterns, everywhere in nature.

position mean for PB
Only 140 draws have been made with the current PB set of 59/35.
There are about 5 million combinations for 5/59. Thus only 140 samples
would not yield any realistic means.
