As everyone knows, lottery is a chaotic and random phenomenon in the world. But randomly drawn #s form patterns that are to a certain extent predictable statistically. Leading scientists and mathematicians have recently discovered that there truly are patterns or models in randomness. And through advanced technology, they are finding that there is order in chaos. Much has been written on the science of chaos. According to the San Francisco Chronicle, “The new science of chaos offers a way of seeing order and pattern where formerly only the random, the erratic, the unpredictable—in short, the chaotic—had been observed.†In fact, the key problem is absolutely not that lottery is unpredictable but our model is not good enough or still needs to be improved further for matching the statistical facts of lottery correctly. Keep in mind that a well performing code or program should base on the correct model which comes from knowledge, intelligence, experience and confidence including a positive attitude.
Now I want to give you two facts to prove my opinion above: Repeat Number & Adjacent Number which is two stable and truthful random phenomena in all lotto games.
1)Repeat Number:
Niceguy called to NUMBER OF HITS IN A ROW, which of the drawn numbers that hit in the last game are most likely to repeat with another hit the next game. Based to statistics, numbers repeated from the previous drawing account for up to 24% of the winning #s drawn. The lowest percent of repeat hits in any Lotto games is 11.4%. More than half, but up to 84% of drawing have at least one # hit from the previous game (except to Powerball and The Big Game). Some drawings have more than one number repeated. The below lists some examples from statistical facts:

11 3 -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 3 0.1
12 -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 0
2)Adjacent Number:
Adjacent Numbers are numbers on either side of the Lotto numbers that hit in the last drawing. For example, if number 28 hit in the last drawing, its Adjacent Numbers would be 27 or 29 for the next drawing. In statistical, more than 80% of the drawing have one or more Adjacent Numbers, averaging 1.4 Adjacent Numbers per game. Also, the lower the number field the higher the percentage of ANs we can expect to see. And lotto games with bonus numbers have more ANs. For instance, a 5/36 lotto game averages 1.3 ANs each drawing, whereas a 5/39 lotto game (without a bonus #) average 1.2 each drawing and a 5/39 lotto game with a bonus # average 1.4 each drawing. The below lists some examples from statistical facts:
NY 5/39: 1.2 Average Adjacent #s per game;
3040 games (76.2%) had at least 1 AN.

Stan, I have the same question with Niceguy: Is there anywhere in Expert Lotto that we can find the Filters to leave or select the Repeat #s & Adjacent #s? If EL has, I’m sorry and pls ignore the post. Thanks.
Best,
