I have kept acturate records of the Power Ball multi state drawings for years and just 75 drawings ago they changed from a 53 white ball to a 55 white ball drawing (I know those buggers keep trying to throw us off)
Well when I load the entire data base of wining numbers into EL I find errors in the data when using the stats package. i.e. in the ticket number table I select the last 75 drawings and I come up with a totally different data set then EL does. Anyone ever see this before?
Here is what I have per my recored vs. what EL says I have based on occurances of a number:
number prgm off by EL- says Actual
35 7 18 11
47 6 8 2
52 5 12 7
33 11 12 1
36 7 12 5
40 8 13 5
54 on 13 13
26 8 14 6
34 5 14 9
44 8 14 6
51 9 14 5
53 8 14 6
28 8 15 7
THis is just th efirst 13 numbers in the file but they are all off by quite a bit and that will change the percentages as well. Thanks for your help or comments. I'd be glad to send the file I am using if anyone is interested.
