Hi Andrew,
I have followed your program for a number of years. It was and still is one of the best in terms of knocking down numbers to get better odds.
I found the manual stack approach extremely hard to follow as I did not know what figures to put into all the boxes to get weights and filters etc.
So I used the AI, and here in Canada, there is a 7/49 lottery. From this, using your program, I got a stack that gave 31 good numbers. From these numbers, when you use 'Scan previous drawings' option, it reveals the following from a draw total of about 394 lines;
(52) x 3's, (110) x 4's, (120) x 5's, (77) x 6's and finally (24) x 7's (the jackpot prize)
Obviously one doesn't pick 7's but from the rest, one would concentrate on getting higher numbers of 4's, 5's and 6's. While there is absolutely no guarantee in ANY lottery program, I feel reducing the odds and then somehow refining those remaining is a good start.
I am currently teaching myself Python and I think that program may be useful to re-do and add to the current WINHunter. I can offer to do coding, once my skill gets better, at least in the simple algorithmic programs. Reason I believe Python is a good start is because if acts as a front for all the C programming stuff. Difficult things like pointers and arrays etc. Been through C programming many years ago and forgot most, but did go through all that stuff. Also Python has a great support base, libraries etc, and it is one of the 'easier' languages.
No doubt there are many of you folks out there that are probably programming and are all getting fun out of trying to at least put a tiny dent into the lottery games, both intellectually and for maybe a bit of winnings cash.
Hopefully, that organic WINHunter can take off once again. But I would definitely like to see a more detailed way of applying filters and how to get varying results based on the inputs. A little more user friendly for us non techies.
