Example
The
default number groups set in Expert Lotto 6/49 Demo Lottery divides
pool numbers into five groups: 1-10, 11-20, 21-30, 31-40, 41-49.
- When
filter settings are Group 1-10, Numbers in group min: 2, max: 2, Group
11-20, Numbers in group min: 2, max: 2, At least 2 to 2 groups must
pass then:
- 01-02-11-12-21-22 - filter accepts this ticket
because two numbers (1, 2) are from the first group and two numbers
(11, 12) are from the second group.
- 01-02-03-11-12-21 - filter rejects this ticket because three numbers (1, 2, 3)
are from the first group which is outside the allowed range.
- When filter settings are Group 1-10, Numbers in group min: 2, max:
2, Group 11-20, Numbers in group min: 2, max: 2, At least 1 to 2 groups
must pass then:
- 01-02-03-11-12-21 - filter accepts this ticket because two numbers (11, 12)
are from the second group and it is enough if just one number group passes the condition.
- 21-22-23-24-25-26 - filter reject this ticket because no ticket number is from the first group or from the second group.
- When
filter settings are Group 1-10, Numbers in group min: 0, max: 6, Group

- 01-02-03-04-05-06 - filter rejects this ticket. The conditions for individual numbers are
met - 6 numbers from the first group, 0 numbers from the second group,
0 numbers from the third group. However the ticket numbers fall into a
single group only so the last filter condition isn't met and the ticket
is rejected.
- 01-02-03-04-05-11 - filter accepts this filter because
5 numbers are from the first group, one number is from the second
group, no number is from the third group and ticket numbers fall into 2
distinct number groups.

filter because no number is from the first group, one number is from
the second group, one number is from
the third group and ticket numbers fall into 2 distinct number groups.
