Further UK Lotto Triple Analysis

I now have an update and have added a file Lottery.doc up to and including UK Lotto Draw number 1613 drawn on Wednesday 8th June.

This shows that the number combination 2, 23, 40 has now occurred 10 times with 10, 34, 48 having now appeared 9 times.

While watching the numbers flick through I noticed that there were a number of triples which have never occurred. I will do some analysis and see how many.

Analysing the UK Lotto Results

On our web site we have set up a program for you to download to analyse the triples appearing in the UK Lotto since it started.

The triple which has appeared most frequently from the start (No 1) on Saturday 19th November 1994 to the draw (No 1514) on Wednesday 30th June 2010 is 2, 23, 40 - it has appeared 9 times.

The program and instructions are available on our web site

We have used the statistics from the excellent Merseyworld Lotto site:

We will be modifying the program to identify the quadruples and the quintuples but this analysis takes so what longer!

As a possible extension, it might be interesting to identify triples which have never occurred.
