This guide explains how TTLottoStats describes Lotto Plus main numbers in selected valid historical records. The measurements describe recorded appearances and structures; they do not change the theoretical probability of a future draw.
Main-number frequency
Frequency is the number of selected valid draws containing a particular main number. If number 12 appears in 20 of the draws being studied, its frequency for that window is 20.
Frequency changes when the historical window changes because the set of counted draws changes.
Current gap
The Analyzer reads selected draws newest first. A number in the latest draw has gap 0; a number in the previous draw has gap 1. If a number does not appear anywhere in the selected window, its gap is the window length.
This is a position within the selected records. It does not mean that a number is due.
Longest main gap
The Analyzer’s “Longest main gap” is the largest current gap among the main numbers in the selected window. It identifies which number is currently furthest from its most recent recorded appearance in that window.
It is not the maximum historical interval between two appearances of one number.
Hot, Warm, Cool and Cold
The Analyzer derives these labels from each number’s frequency compared with the mean and standard deviation of frequencies in the selected window. The labels summarize relative frequency in that window.
Pairs, triplets, quads and exact fives
These are unordered combinations of two, three, four or five main numbers occurring together in a recorded draw. The Combination Explorer counts how often each selected combination appears in the chosen window.
A co-occurrence is a recorded relationship. It does not show that one number causes, attracts or predicts another.
Combination Explorer
The Explorer accepts current main numbers 1–35 and a selected pool of up to 12 numbers. It supports pairs, triplets, quads and exact five-number combinations.
Its available windows are Last 20, Last 50, Last 100, Last 250, Last 500, Last 1,000 and all valid draws. For each combination it reports occurrence count, most recent occurrence, current gap and expandable occurrence history.
Results can be sorted by combination, most occurrences, most recent occurrence or largest current gap. Powerball may be displayed beside historical rows for context, but it does not participate in main-number combination matching.
Number Pool Analyzer
The Number Pool Analyzer accepts a selected main-number pool of 5–12 values from 1–35. It reports how often each selected number appeared, how many selected pool members appeared in each draw, internal pairs and triplets, and recent draws with strong pool matches.
A pool is a working set for historical investigation. It is not inherently a prediction set.
Ticket structure
The Ticket Analyzer reviews one five-number main ticket. It reports each number’s historical frequency and current gap, pair/triplet/quad history, exact five-number history, similar draws and comparisons with recorded ticket structure.
Its structural summaries include:
- Odd/even split: the number of odd and even values.
- Low/high split: Low is 1–17 and High is 18–35 for the current 1–35 main range.
- Consecutive pairs: adjacent values after sorting, such as 14 and 15.
- Sum: the total of the five main values.
- Spread: the highest value minus the lowest value.
These definitions describe the current Ticket Analyzer implementation. They summarize recorded structure rather than establishing a preferred ticket shape.
Repeat and carryover
The Repeat & Carryover Explorer compares each valid chronological Lotto Plus draw with the immediately following draw using main numbers only. It measures the intersection between the two five-number main sets.
It reports repeat-count distributions, opportunities and repeated-next-draw counts for each main number, carryover rates and longest consecutive-draw streaks. Powerball is excluded from this calculation.
How to interpret these relationships
Frequency, gaps, combinations, pool hits, ticket structure and carryover describe what appears in selected records. Changing the window changes which records are measured.
