This program introduces a new way of showing the inside of lottery game: Ticket View.
Ticket View is a graphical representation of game numbers and the game layout itself in general.
Let's review a sample lottery game like Lotto 6/49 where 6 numbers are drawn from 49 numbers.
Game Layout
Traditional way
Usually, we think about a game as a group of numbers, well there are 49 numbers:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49
New way
We can see a game as square field of numbers.
Lottery Numbers (lottery drawings)
Traditional way
In our sample game there are six numbers drawn, so for example we have game numbers such as:
5 6 9 15 38 41
New way
We can place them on our ticket view and colorize them. Looks better!
The terminology we will use is:
The Ticket Number is a one number from a game numbers pool like from example one of numbers from 1 to 49.
The Draw Number is one number out of all the drawn numbers, like 1 from 6.
New Lottery Numbers (lottery drawings)
Traditional way
How to see how the new game numbers are in relation to the previous ones?
1 11 23 28 30 41 - New ones
6 10 16 32 34 44 - The previous numbers
Also, not much to say about their relations.
New way
We can place new numbers on top of the old ones and colorize them.
We use blue borders to show the new numbers.
2 11 23 31 38 41 - New ones (blue border)
7 12 19 31 36 39 - The previous numbers (red ones)
In the old-fashioned way, you will not be able tell much about number's relations, in a new way you can tell how the new numbers are relating to the previous ones just by taking look on a Ticket View
