Combined Filters Neighbors Distances Pick 5 The Neighbors Distances (NB-DST) is a so called "combined filter", a combination of a digit and a math filter. It requires two separate parts to create the filter.
Neighbors (NB) is yet another alternative to the old VTracs (VTX). Instead of combining digits by adding 5 it selects the all even digits with the next odd digit up, 0 with 1, 2 with 3 all the way to 8 with 9. It is another efficient way to combine an odd with an even digit.
To show you how to calculate the Neighbors Distances filter for a Pick 5 number here an example step by step.
Part I: Pick 5 Neighbors Distances Conversion Step 1: Divide 71453 into separate digits: 71453 => 7 1 4 5 3 Step 2: Convert each digit to filter: 7 = 4 1 = 1 4 = 3 5 = 3 3 = 2 Step 3: Combine the filters to a string: 4 1 3 3 2 = 41332
Part II: Pick 5 Neighbors Distances Conversion Step 1: Divide the number into separate digits: 41332 => 4 1 3 3 2 Step 2: Calculate the distance between each digit and the next (the last digit with the first): 4 to 1 = 3 1 to 3 = 2 3 to 3 = 0 3 to 2 = 1 2 to 4 = 2 Step 3: Combine the filters to a string: 3 2 0 1 2 = 32012
