it is because 'match previous draws' analyzer counts the *highest* match in the previous draws. while 'matching winning numbers' filter accepts a ticket if there is at least one draw matching the filtered ticket. so 'matching winning numbers' filter accepts more tickets than analyzer table filter with the same settings.
so if you insist on having a standalone 'match previous draws' filter, please reopen that issue, thanks
Hi Stan!
Thank you for resolving my issue 57.
One of the reasons for my issue 125 was that I wished to have a standalone Match Previous Draws filter. The reason for telling you about the error is because you said the following in your comment when you had resolved issue 125. “Adjacent Numbers filter will be available in the next development build. Match Previous Draws filter is already available as Match Winning Numbers filter.” When I take this comment into account I expected that these two filters would make equal results, but they do not. I am going to reopen this issue to hopefully get what I wished for.
I think that all future Analyzer filters that are of the type you use before each draw also should be built as a standalone filter if possible. The only reasons because I wish to have it like this are because the filtering would then be much faster and you would also be able to add it to a Complex filter and save a lot of time.
