Can somebody tell me the results of this, as far as resource usage, =
memory requirements, etc.:

-- start proggie
sequence picks
picks =3D repeat( {0,0,0,0,0,0}, 25827165 )
-- write this to an EDS database
-- end proggie

Thanks!

P.S. The number 25,827,165 is the number of combinations available when =
picking six numbers from 54, which is the Texas Lottery's system.

CK, I've got every International and State lottery (Past Picks) in a
database
8 megs and load times are very fast on my slow 233mhz.
I'll be releasing my Commercial app this month...
You can buy it for $40 US which will give you updates for all Lotteries
for 3 month after which time you can purchase 3 months at $10
or 12 mnths for $25.....

Euman,

I'm not interested in past picks. What I want to do is have a database =
of all possible combinations of 6 from 54. I'm tracking this primarily =
to prevent duplication in assignment of picks to various entities.

Is there a formula I can use that will convert a number (1...25827165) =
to a corresponding, unique, set of picks?

For instance...

1 =3D 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
2 =3D 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7
3 =3D 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8
...
25827165 =3D 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54

I doubt it, but maybe there's somebody here with more time and =
brainpower to figure this out... If not, then this is why I would need =
the EDS database of all possible combinations.

Thanks!
ck

P.S. Why would somebody want your software? You're not going to claim =
that it will help win the lottery, are you?
  CK, I've got every International and State lottery (Past Picks) in a =
database
  8 megs and load times are very fast on my slow 233mhz.

    Is there a formula I can use that will convert a number (1...25827165)
to a corresponding, unique, set of picks?

    For instance...

    1 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
    2 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7
    3 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8
    ...
    25827165 = 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54

    I doubt it, but maybe there's somebody here with more time and
brainpower to figure this out... If not, then this is why I would need the
EDS database of all possible combinations.

    Thanks!

    P.S. Why would somebody want your software? You're not going to claim

      CK, I've got every International and State lottery (Past Picks) in a

      8 megs and load times are very fast on my slow 233mhz.

I think each atom will take up 32 bits (for non floating points)
32*6=192bits per item
192*25827165=4958815680 (bits required in total for the data)
now, there will need to be a pointer to each sequence so add another
25827165*32 (826469280)
4958815680+826469280=6611754240
There must be other overheads, but I don't know what they are.
Anyway, that converted to bytes is 826,469,280 bytes.
That's quite a lot of disk swapping :) Wouldn't it be better to calculate the
values in
real time as they are needed?

All the above is based on half remembered things that rob and other
people have mentioned about the internal workings of Euphoria, it
could very easily be totally wrong :)

I'll take a closer look at it... I didn't see anyplace where it built =
the EDS database.

I guess it just creates a sequence of picks? (All 25 million+ =
combinations)?

8. A Big Ol' Database

-P2956@KI

Hi CK,

CL>Is there a formula I can use that will convert a number (1...25827165) 
CL>to a corresponding, unique, set of picks?

CL>For instance...

CL>1 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
CL>2 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7
CL>3 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8
CL>...
CL>25827165 = 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54

No formula, but there's a method. I will start out with some mathematical 
background. What I'm trying to explain is called "n over k" in German.

It means:  How many different sets of k numbers can you pick out of n 
numbers, where the sequence of the numbers within the resulting set doesn't 
matter.  If you look at "6 over 3" you get 6 * 5 * 4 ways to pick 3 numbers 
out of 6, that makes 120. But since there are 3 * 2 * 1 = 6 ways to arrange 
every set of 3, it leaves only 20 different sets.

I suppose,  you've known all this already, or how else did you find the 
figure 25827165?

Look at all possible sets of 6 out of 54! For the lowest number being 1, 
there are "53 over 5" (2869685) sets for the next 5 numbers. For the next 
lowest number being 2, there are "52 over 5" (2598960) possibilities for the 
next set of 5.  That means, set 5500000 will very probably start with a 3, 
and set 25827164 will start with 48.

Get the idea? The first 2869685 sets have "1" as the lowest number, the next 
2598960 sets have "2" as the first number, and so on.  Having understood 
that, you can find the numbers for the sets of 4 etc.

Lutz.
