In any setup the user has the option of using the last 3 lower sliders. Each of these have odds of
1 in 10 as the range is 0 to 9. Setting two of these correctly gives odds of 1 in 100 because
there are 100 total combinations. The odds of doing this twice is 1 in 100 * 1 in 100 = 1 in 10K.
The number of front lexie sets returned varies based on the matrix used and the two slide settings.
If we factor in games like my 5-39 where the odds are 1 in 576, remember the lexie can be 000
to 575 we can see the front lexie is around 58% of a standard pick-3. The bid games where we
are working 4 digits like power-ball for instance, we see there are 11,238,513 lines in the matrix
excluding the bonus. This means that then we are working with 11.23 percent of a standard pick-4.
Is it perfect, no, buts it's fun to play around with. The dump files were requested by others so I
added the option in. How people use the program and analysis tools is up to them. The odds for
a basic setup using two of the three lower lower slides is 1 in 100. Hitting two for the front and two
for the back are 10*10*10*10 = 10,000. If the front lex is set correctly even if the back is not
then the odds of winning a prize is very good. The question is, can analysis of the data give us the
correct values to play more often than selecting at random. That's up to the user to decide. I don't
suggest that the odds can be shortened for any game, it's how we choose to tackle the odds.
