Digit Filters VTracs Pick 5 The VTracs (P34ID:VTX) is a so called "digit filter". A digit filter divides each digit into options. The VTracs filter has the following options:
VTracs = Digits 1 = 0 5 2 = 1 6 3 = 2 7 4 = 3 8 5 = 4 9
To show you how to find the VTracs filter for a Pick 5 number here an example step by step.
Pick 5 VTracs Conversion Step 1: Divide 98839 into separate digits: 98839 => 9 8 8 3 9 Step 2: Convert each digit to filter: 9 = 5 8 = 4 8 = 4 3 = 4 9 = 5 Step 3: Combine the filters to a string: 5 4 4 4 5 = 54445
The original idea of the VTracs (VTX), standing for variable tracs, was to take the daily lottery and to reduce the number of digits from 10 digits (0 to 9) to 5 digits (1 to 5). The reduction was supposed to simplify the tracking of 1000 Pick 3 numbers to 125 VTracs numbers. In between the VTracs concept was watered down by combining pretty every available filter with VTracs, while originally the idea was to improve the selection of straight numbers. |
