Major Updates To Several Software Applications
By Ion Saliu, Applicator At-Large
Authored by Ion Saliu on September 12 & 13; Rocktober 4, 2007.
• Major upgrades: Improvements in functionality, performance and error handling to the following indubitably great software applications:
• FrequencyRank.EXE, version 1.1;
• PermuteCombine.exe, version 4.1
• SHUFFLE.EXE, version 5.1;
• SkipSystem.EXE, version 5.0;
• SORTING.EXE, version 12.0;
• SUMS.EXE, version 6.0
• SuperFormula.exe, version 12.0;
• UpDown.EXE, version 3.1;
• WINNERS.EXE, version 5.1;
• BellCurveGenerator.exe, version 11.0;
• FileLines.EXE, version 4.0;
• LottoWheeler.EXE, version 2.0;
• OddsCalc.EXE, version 6.0 (entirely rewritten);
• Parsel.EXE, version 4.0.
Based on the feedback I receive, the update to SUMS.EXE answers many a prayer.
First off, the summary of big-odds lotto games is performed significantly faster. All the reports are also complete.
As nice twist, the sum-mary reports show also the percentage a particular sum-total represents in the entire lexicographic field of the respective lotto game.
The application has a special generalized function. It treats every lotto game as a combination of two, much like the Euromillions game. You can calculate the lotto odds for two-games-in-one situations. For example, all the odds for 6/20+5/20 lotto. The lotto 6/49 game is a particular case of one game of 6 from 49 numbers, and another game of 0 from 0 numbers. The probability report looks like this:
A few examples of odds at horse races.

The programs can be downloaded by the registered members from the 7 software categories.
Several more upgrades are planned for release, including the (super) enhanced Bright.EXE software packages (3 menus, not just one).
Best of luck! Enjoy your journey!

• OddsCalc.EXE has been entirely rewritten. It is now 32-bit software. But that's only the tip of the iceberg. The program calculates the lotto odds completely, both as EXACTLY and AT LEAST. It covers standard lotto games (e.g. 6/49), Keno (e.g. 10/20/80), horseracing, Powerball/Mega Millions and Euromillions.
The odds calculated as EXACTLY in a generalized lotto game
'6/49 AND 0/0':
~ 0 of 6 in 6 from 49 AND 0 of 0 in 0 from 0 -> 1 in 2.29
~ 1 of 6 in 6 from 49 AND 0 of 0 in 0 from 0 -> 1 in 2.42
~ 2 of 6 in 6 from 49 AND 0 of 0 in 0 from 0 -> 1 in 7.55
~ 3 of 6 in 6 from 49 AND 0 of 0 in 0 from 0 -> 1 in 56.66
~ 4 of 6 in 6 from 49 AND 0 of 0 in 0 from 0 -> 1 in 1032.4
~ 5 of 6 in 6 from 49 AND 0 of 0 in 0 from 0 -> 1 in 54200.84
~ 6 of 6 in 6 from 49 AND 0 of 0 in 0 from 0 -> 1 in 13983816
The odds calculated as AT LEAST in a generalized lotto game
'6/49 AND 0/0':
~ 0 of 6 in 6 from 49 AND 0 of 0 in 0 from 0 -> 1 in 1
~ 1 of 6 in 6 from 49 AND 0 of 0 in 0 from 0 -> 1 in 1.77
~ 2 of 6 in 6 from 49 AND 0 of 0 in 0 from 0 -> 1 in 6.62
~ 3 of 6 in 6 from 49 AND 0 of 0 in 0 from 0 -> 1 in 53.66
~ 4 of 6 in 6 from 49 AND 0 of 0 in 0 from 0 -> 1 in 1013.03
~ 5 of 6 in 6 from 49 AND 0 of 0 in 0 from 0 -> 1 in 53991.57
~ 6 of 6 in 6 from 49 AND 0 of 0 in 0 from 0 -> 1 in 13983816
The generalized function defaults to a 5/56/1/46 game (actually, it is the
Mega Millions lottery game):

The 'Horseracing' option calculates the odds for exactas (top 2 finishers), trifectas (top 3 finishers), superfectas (top 4 finishers), etc. The horse racing probabilities are calculated also as STRAIGHT and BOXED.
