In the last 85 draws, bonus included, we had the following:
09 draws, no primes
15 draws, 1 prime
28 draws, 2 primes
18 draws, 3 primes
14 draws, 4 primes
01 draw, 5 primes

Prime numbers

Peter,

In draws #2101 to 2185 (85 draws), I get fairly similar data for prime numbers except for 2 categories:

- I got 14 draws with 1 prime number while you get 15;
- I got 29 draws with 2 prime numbers while you get 28.

My 14 draws with 1 prime number are:
2110 - 2114 - 2115 - 2119 - 2122 - 2129 - 2130 - 2132 - 2139 - 2149 - 2163 - 2176 - 2177 -2181

In which othe draw, did you have 1 prime number (where obviously I had 2)?

Draw 2161-20,26,29,31,40,49,B-18 Gilles, let me know if you have anything different, results are from sympatico.

New non-prime numbers

Your data for draw #2161 is right but this generates a question.

Obviously, numbers 20 - 26 - 40 and B-18 are not prime being even and also 49 is not prime being a square.

Now, out of the 7 numbers for that draw, this leaves 29 and 31. Which one do you consider prime and which one is not prime?

I considered them both as prime, so I get 29 draws with 2 prime numbers to your 28 draws.

Gilles, you are so correct, I must not be thinking correctly, yes I consider both the 29 and the 31 as primes.
As always you come through with the correct information, thxs.
Just a slight blond moment on my part.
