Definition


In-Contact numbers refer to ticket numbers that directly surround a given ticket number within a game layout.

Example: Game Layout View for Ticket Number 18
The In-Contact numbers for ticket number 18 are: 10, 11, 12, 17, 18, 19, 24, 25, 26.

Note: The In-Contact set always includes the base ticket number itself.

Next Draw


Any number drawn in the next draw that falls within the contact field of numbers 18 will be considered a in-contact number.
When the new numbers are drawn, such as 17, 19, 35, 39, 46, and 48, they are placed on the Game Layout View (new numbers have blue borders).

As illustrated in the picture above, two numbers, 17 and 19, are drawn within a field of number 18.
The number 17 is classified as an "Outside" type number because it is placed in the field of "Outside" numbers from the previous draw.
The number 19 is classified as a "Contact" type number because it is placed within the field of "Contact" numbers from the previous draw.
Both numbers are considered "Cold" numbers because they are placed in the field of "Cold" numbers from the previous draw.
 

Numbers Choosing Guide


In the majority of game lottery drawings, the new numbers are typically not crowded together but are more scattered across the Game Layout View.

 
It is uncommon in standard lottery games for a new draw to contain many numbers from the surrounding pool of "In Contact Numbers." An exception is the Keno game, where many numbers are drawn, and they can be crowded.

All selected numbers in the ticket above show too many numbers around ticket number 11 or 18.

There are not too many numbers selected around a single ticket number.

 

Analyzing


 
If you wish to view the drawn numbers, select from the menu In Contact / All Ticket Numbers / Number 1 or 2...
This analysis method demonstrates the number of draw numbers within the contact field of a ticket number.

 

Here is an example diagram

analysis_incontactnumber

 

If a number was not drawn, the diagram will show a point in row 0.

If a number was drawn, the diagram will show a point in row 1 or 2, depending on how many numbers were drawn.

For example if the game numbers are 1, 3, 10, 25, 31, 45, two numbers (10, 25) were drawn from the surrounding numbers of ticket number 18.

In that case, the diagram will show a point in row 2.

 

The next diagrams will analyze the numbers that were drawn above and at the same time were drawn as Contact, Cold, etc. numbers.

 

Analyzing in Various Configurations


 

The main number types are:
Contact, Outside, Hot, Cold, Odd, Even, Connected, Unconnected, Disconnected
 

The Visual Analyzer evaluates numbers in all possible combinations.

Each main number type can appear individually or in combination with others.

 

When you change the primary number type using the Number Type Switch, diagrams display the analysis of the examined numbers and how they are represented as the primary number type in combination with other types.

 

 

In the sample analysis below, the Number Type Switch is enabled and the primary number is selected as the Cold number type.

 
analysis_incontact_numbercmb etc.
 
The upcoming diagrams will present analyses of numbers that were drawn as Cold, and simultaneously as Cold & Even, Cold & Connected, etc. numbers.

Please see also Analysis Screen topic for more info on how to interpret diagrams.

Filtering


 

If you want to filter generated lottery tickets or wheel system combinations using the analysis methods described in this topic, please follow the steps below:

 

1.Display the Filters page and add filters to your game filter collection.

2.From the Filter tab add the following filter: 
 

To configure it, input or select the required data into the filter grid columns:

 
Use column
Check the checkbox if you want to use this filter.
 
Properties column:
Enter or select from combo box list the ticket number you want to filter

 

Main Number Type
Select the filter Main Number Type, allowing you to filter numbers by their type.
If the main type is set to ALL TYPES, then all numbers are filtered regardless of their type.

 

Sub Number Type
Select the filter Sub Number Type allowing you to filter numbers by their main type in combination with the sub-type.

If the main type is set to ALL TYPES then all numbers are filtered regardless of their type or only to the type set in the "Master Type Number" property.

Essentially, you can filter numbers by their occurrences in various types of number configurations.

You can filter numbers by their occurrences as types of "Contact" and "Even" numbers together.

 

Action

Set the filter action applied by the filter to determine the final outcome when filter's condition is met.

You can accept or reject generated numbers or wheel system combinations.
If the Action is Reject, no value needs to be set; source numbers containing any number from the last game's lottery draw are rejected.

If the Action is Accept, no value needs to be set; source numbers containing any number from the last game's lottery draw are accepted.

 

Value

Set the filter's condition value, with the value and type depending on the filter type.

 
Range
Set the filter's condition range value, used only when the filter condition is set to a range of values.
To set the filter range values, enter values such as 2 and 5, which will result in a range between 2 and 5 numbers.

 

Numbers

Displays or sets the filter's numbers, applicable only when using the Exclude or Include numbers filter.
 

Condition

Filter conditions you can apply to meet the filter Value option criteria or only the filter Action option.

Set a filter condition from drop down list that will open when you click on a column cell.
You can select one of the following conditions:

 

Any Value

This is a flexible condition to use as it allows for the approval or rejection of any numbers.
You do not to need to specify the Value, Numbers or Range Of Values properties.
 
If the Action is Reject

Generated ticket numbers or wheel system combinations containing any numbers from the Main Numbers Type or Sub Numbers Type are rejected.

If the Action is Accept

Generated ticket numbers or wheel system combinations containing any numbers from the Main Numbers Type or Sub Numbers Type are accepted

 

Equals Filter Value

This strict condition allows approval or rejection of numbers only when the quantity matches the filter value property.

If the action is to Reject, generated ticket numbers or wheel system combinations containing any numbers from the Main Numbers Type or Sub Numbers Type, and the exact quantity of those numbers that match the Value property, are rejected, otherwise are  accepted if action is to Accept.

 

Higher Than Filter Value

This condition allows for the approval or rejection of numbers whose quantity is higher than the filter value.

If the action is to Reject, generated ticket numbers or wheel system combinations containing any numbers from the Main Numbers Type or Sub Numbers Type, and the quantity of those numbers is higher than set in the Value property, are rejected; otherwise, if the action is to Accept, they are accepted.

 

Lower Than Filter Value

This condition allows for the approval or rejection of numbers whose quantity is lower than the filter value.

If the action is to Reject, generated ticket numbers or wheel system combinations containing any numbers from the Main Numbers Type or Sub Numbers Type, and the quantity of those numbers is lowers than set in the Value property, are rejected; otherwise, if the action is to Accept, they are accepted.

 

Range Of Values

This condition allows the approval or rejection of quantities that fall within the specified filter range values.

If the action is to Reject, generated ticket numbers or wheel system combinations containing any numbers from the Main Numbers Type or Sub Numbers Type, and the quantity of those numbers is higher than set in the Range property, are rejected; otherwise, if the action is to Accept, they are accepted.
