In Contact – Single Game Numbers

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 numbers set always include 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.
 

Each game draw is unique, and the number position varies every time. 
Observing how often these numbers are drawn can help decide whether to include them in your ticket.
In most games, the occurrence of these numbers fluctuates, so choosing different types of numbers is a good strategy. 
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.
 

Occasionally, in some games, only contact numbers or none at all are drawn. However, if that happens, it's just one missed chance out of many better opportunities

Select from the Visual Analyser menu select:

Types of Numbers > In Contact – Single Game Numbers
The result of analysis is shown on a Visual Analyser's screen

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

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 Number Main Types are:
Contact, Outside, Hot, Cold, Odd, Even, Connected, Unconnected, Disconnected
 

The Visual Analyzer evaluates numbers in all possible combinations.

Each Number Main 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.

 
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.
