Ion Saliu's lottery and gambling software is offered as-is. Serious effort is involved in creating and testing each and every program. Errors (bugs) may still show up, however, as it was discovered as recently as May 2001. It is recommended that every user tests this software on paper, before deciding to play with real money. The command processor must be enabled for Ion Saliu's 32-bit console applications to run. It is highly recommended to run these programs at the DOS or command prompt.
Ion Saliu's software is for personal use only. Commercial use of any of these computer programs is strictly prohibited. Reverse engineering is prohibited by law.
Some programs are 16-bit DOS software. They can run in either a 16-bit operating system, such as the perhaps-obsolete Windows 3.xx and DOS 6.xx or older; or, the programs can run under the 32-bit operating systems such as Windows 9x, ME, NT, 2000, XP.
The latest programs are 32-bit software. They require a 32-bit flavor of the Windows operating system. This is the case of MDIEditor and Lotto, written in Visual Basic version 6.0 (VB 6).
Most 32-bit programs are text or character based. They are compiled with Power Basic Console Compiler (PBCC). They require the 32-bit DOS or command processor of the 32-bit Windows operating system.

This is the most comprehensive lottery and lotto software: Statistical analyzer and combination generator for Windows 95/98/Me/NT4/2000/XP. It works also as a potent text editor, mainly to contain, format and print the lottery combinations.
The super software application founded on mathematics covers these types of lotto and lottery games: pick3, pick-4, horseracing (trifectas and superfectas), lotto-4, lotto-5, lotto-6, lotto-7, Powerball/Mega Millions '5+1', Euromillions '5+2'.
Version 4.0_WE ~ Final ~ October 2006; size: 4 MB.
FileLines.EXE, lottery and lotto software. It writes to disk the lines of specified indexes in a file, usually a strategy file created by STRAT*.EXE. This represents one situation when working with LotWon and also MDIEditor & Lotto. For example: You created the WS files in the DOS LotWon lottery software. You also generated the statistical reports in MDIEditor & Lotto. You then created the strategy file for the stats in MDIEditor & Lotto. You can't have one strategy file across the two platforms. You want to see the same line numbers in WS files for a more comprehensive strategy.

BirthdayParadox.EXE
UTIL-5.EXE; UTIL-6.EXE. These are statistical analysis utilities for the lotto-5 and lotto-6 games.
Also available the 32-bit utility applications for pick-3, pick 4, and horse racing: UTIL332.EXE, UTIL432.EXE (lottery software) and UTIL-H32.EXE, horse racing software.
Available for the first time as freeware: UtilPB.exe, the software for Powerball and Mega-millions. Get its supplementary text file RANGEPB. It consists of the most frequent positional numbers in 184 draws of the 5/53/49 Powerball game.
The 32-bit lotto and lottery software works with gigantic data files, long file names, and have more potent features. Pay attention to the last function under 'Make/Break/Position'. Take one or two loto numbers with lower median skip(s) and a good probability of hitting in the next drawing. Add to the numbers their own top 8 or 10 pairings; or add the top 8 or 10 pairs of another frequent number that is not expected to hit the next draw. Break the 9/11-number strings into 6-number combinations. The results are astonishing, more often than not! If budget doesn't allow playing all the combinations, then shuffle the combination file and play combinations from the middle (approximately the FFG median). No matter what combinations you play, the following is a constant rule. The combinations from inside the FFG median bell always show a better frequency—around 25% better frequency.
FORMULA.EXE ~ version 8.1, April 22, 2003 (3 WE), retired 16-bit software.
BellCurveGenerator.exe, lottery and gambling software. It generates combinations within the FFG median bell. The Fundamental Formula of Gambling calculates the median automatically. The application handles just about any game: pick-3, pick-4, lotto-5, lotto-6, lotto-7, PowerBall-6, PowerBall-7, horse racing, roulette and sports betting (including the famous European soccer pools and American sports teams).
LexicographicSets.exe, combinatorics software, finds (calculates) the index, or order, or rank, or numeral of all types of sets: exponents, permutations, arrangements, and combinations, including Powerball. Conversely, the program finds (constructs) the set for a given index, or order, or rank, or numeral. The sets are considered in sequential, or lexicographic (lexicographical), or dictionary order.
MENU.EXE. Download this DOS-based menu system using batch file programming. It will make your life a lot easier when running Ion Saliu's freeware. Your DOS screen will look beautiful, too.
The second function opens the output file and records all occurrences when the date and the pick-3 combination are equal. Thus, only the 911-on-September-11-type of occurrences are counted.
OddsCalc.EXE, probability software, lotto software.
FillWheel.EXE, lotto wheeling software; superseded by the most powerful lotto wheeling software: LottoWheeler.EXE.
GridCheck632.EXE, lotto software, checks the past performance of the wonder grid files of lotto-6 for various draw ranges. The program starts a number of draws back in the draw history and creates 3 GRID6 files: for N*1, N*2, N*3 draws. N represents the biggest number in the lotto game..
Read the message "Winning reports for the wonder grid: GridCheck632.EXE (freeware!)" for very important details.
UTIL332.exe is the ultimate pick-3 lottery utility software on steroids. The most important feature is “Make/break/position”. That utility is not present in the 16-bit version of UTIL-3.EXE (comes with LOTWON3 freeware). The “Make/break/position” function creates the "BEST3”, “MOST3” and “LEAST3” like the LOTWON532/632 licensed packages. The BEST3 file represents an enhanced “wonder grid” for the pick-3 lottery. The “Make/break/position” function also generates lottery combinations “by positional ranges”. The positional ranges are stored in 3-line text files. Line 1 contains only the digits you want in the 1st position of the pick-3 lottery combinations; line 2 contains only the digits you want in the 2nd position; line 3 contains only the digits you want in the 3rd position.
SORTING.EXE, lotto, lottery software sorts the combinations in ascending order. It handles lotto-5, lotto-6, lotto-7, PowerBall '5+1' and PowerBall '6+1'.
SUMS.EXE, lottery, lotto software calculates and/or generates the combinations that add-up to a certain sum-total. It handles: pick-3, pick-4, lotto-5, lotto-6, lotto-7, PowerBall '5+1', and PowerBall '6+1'. The program has a fast option: only calculates the amount of combinations that add-up to a sum-total. In addition, the program can generate the combinations and save them to file. The file naming is smarter; it uses the game type and the sum-total.
BETUS32.EXE, sport betting software.
Intelligent random combination generator for sports betting, the American way. The player selects a number of games to bet on. The player bets on either the favorite team to win by more than the point spread, or the underdog to lose by less than the point spread. BETUS32.EXE generates open-ended combinations, until user presses F10; or, it generates 10 combinations around the median. Instead of numbers, the combinations consist of team names.
NthIndex.EXE, combinatorics software.
Find the index of a lotto combination and vice-versa: the combination for a given index. Applicable to most lotto game formats, including PowerBall and Keno. Read the message “Find the index of a lotto combination and vice-versa” for more details.
LOTWONH.EXE, horse racing software.
The super horseracing package, which includes the strategy checking utility (STRATH.EXE). Treats horseracing as the pick3 lottery -- the most effective method of winning at the tracks. You still need to read the tutorial that comes with the older versions of SuperPower$. The key application is STRATH.EXE. You can use it for any filter or combination of filters, for any values. The program also saves to disk your strategies, ANY strategies you analyze or just play with.
LOTWON3.EXE, integrated pick-3 lottery software.
The super pick-3 package, which includes the strategy checking utility (STRAT3.EXE). You still need to read the tutorial that comes with the older versions of SuperPower$. The key application is STRAT3.EXE. You can use it for any filter or combination of filters, for any values. The program also saves to disk your strategies, ANY strategies you analyze or just play with…

SuperFormula.exe ~ version 10.0, September 22, 2003 (3 WE) ~ 32-bit software, supersedes FORMULA - a most powerful probability and statistics software.
This software does the calculations for the Fundamental Formula of Gambling as presented at Gambling Formula. The program is useful to use with the strategies presented at Winning Lotto Lottery Strategy Wheeling and Winning Roulette Systems.
That is, calculate the number of trials N for an event of probability p to appear with the degree of certainty DC.
It is the formula that proves that there is no absolute certainty, therefore proves mathematically the absurdity of the concept god.
The program can reverse the above and calculate the degree of certainty DC for an event of probability p to appear within a range of N trials.
It also handles the "Binomial Distribution Formula". This formula calculates the probability of exactly M successes in N trials, when the probability p is constant.
The program displays the factorials (!) of the parameters used by the binomial distribution: M!, N!
Also, the program calculates the standard deviation applied to binomial events: SQR((N*p*(1-p)).
Finally, the program boasts more functions. One, you can determine the probability when you have the statistical median of a series N; therefore DC=50%.
Two, you can apply the most precise Normal Probability Rule, more precise than using the Gauss curve for discrete random phenomena. It calculates the probability of number of successes within N standard deviations from the most probable outcome.
"A most useful scientific tool!"; "Unmatched theory of probability software, bar none!", many users exclaim.
Beginning with version 6, the program incorporates the two odds calculating programs ODDS and ODDSCALC.

Combinations.exe, lotto software, generates combinations of any 'N taken M at a time' in 'steps' from 1 to C(N,M). The program looks at all the combinations in the set, in lexicographical order. For example, in a 10/6 game, there are 210 combinations, C(10,6); if step=90, then only the combinations index #1, #91 and #181 will be generated. The generation always starts at index #1. The default step is 1: no skipping; i.e. all the combinations in the set will be generated. The program also covers the Powerball-type of games (sets of numbers where the last number can be equal to any of the preceding numbers).

Version 1.0, January 2003 (3 WE).
DatePick4.exe, pick-4 lottery software. A computer program that simulates EXACTLY dates and pick-4 combinations. Inspired by the New York draw 9-1-1 on September 11, 2000.
DatePick3.exe, pick-3 lottery software. A computer program that simulates EXACTLY dates and pick-3 combinations. Inspired by the New York draw 9-1-1 on September 11, 2000.
DatePick3.EXE has two functions: generate dates in one column; generate pick-3 combinations in the second column. The dates follow the US format: 'month/day'. The dates start at 101 (January 1) and end at 1231 (December 31). The program does not consider the leap years. The program runs continuously in cycles of 365 days, until the user stops the execution (pressing X or the function key F10). The date-combination lines are saved to disk. The output file can be very large. The file looks like:
101 093
…
1231 345
I ran DatePick3.EXE many times. The program generated and checked millions of pick 3 combinations and dates. There are occurrences of date-equal-to-the-combination. The probability of such patterns is not 1/1000; it is closer to 1/1216. The difference is caused by the dates that can be expressed only as 4-digit numbers. 365/273 * 1000 = 1337 to 1.

Version 3.0, August 2002 (2 WE), 32-bit DOS software.
The program calculates all the odds in lotto games, including PowerBall and Keno, following the official method used by the lottery commissions.
The user should be informed that some lotto cases are impossible (such as EXACTLY '1 of 6' or '0 of 6' in 6/9 or 6/10 "lotto" games). Try to think about it exactly...as EXACTLY '1 in 6'! ODDSCALC.EXE version 4.11 (July 24, 2002) will display the message '0 of 6 probability = 0 (impossible)!' The program will no longer abort and display the message 'Error 11: division by zero'. Negative numbers and 0 will be dealt with accordingly! No user's errors are possible now. With the exception, of course, of intentional filenaming that's not compliant with the 16-bit DOS! (8.3 filenaming.)
ODDSCALC.EXE is not compressed (zipped) and you can run it directly.
The best and most comprehensible 'lotto wheeler'—an application to substitute theoretical system numbers by user's picks.
The program takes a source lotto wheel file with theoretical numbers: '1,2,3,4,5,6' etc. The only field delimiters accepted by the program are commas and blank spaces. The programme does not accept lottery wheels in a format such as '33,17,23,29,44,45'. Only theoretical abbreviated lotto systems are acceptable ('1,2,3,4,5,6' '1,3,5,8,9,10' etc.)
The user types her/his picks (chosen lotto numbers). The picks replace the numbers in the original system file. Finally, the program saves the new combinations to a destination file. The program also parses the source file to make sure it is in the correct format. The wheels come from many sources, especially from books. Typos are a way of life. FillWheel.EXE works with any text file, with up to 100 numbers per combination and thousands of combinations (lines). The program does not come with any wheels.
The PowerBall wheels are treated specifically. If the player selects N regular numbers and the same N numbers as Powerballs, then the regular lotto wheeling can be applied. But if the player makes a clear distinction between the regular numbers and the PowerBalls, then the PowerBall option must be selected.
I consider every player to be a mature person. I need not repeat the warning concerning the dangers of wheeling. Please read the following messages:
"The myth of lotto wheels or abbreviated systems" and "The Fundamental Formula of Wheeling".
"Help for wheel buffs".
Version 2.00, August 2002 (2 WE).
FillWheel.EXE is not compressed (zipped) and you can run it directly.
CheckHits.exe, lottery wheeling software checks the past performance of playing the last N draws as lotto wheels. The application takes two primary parameters:
1) how many past draws to simulate playing;
2) check all possible draws in a history file.
The UK 6/49 lotto has 737 draws on my PC. Let's suppose I played the last 57 lotto draws. The program can check a maximum range of 737 – 57 = 680 past draws. If I play the last 40 draws, than the maximum analysis range is 737 – 40 = 697 past draws.
Both cases show better results than random expectation. Of course, the financial show is far superior to a 163-combination wheel. The 40-draw case is, however, clearly better than the 57-draw play.
Read the message Fundamental Formula of Wheeling for very important details.

The file above will generate exactly 3x4x2=24 pick-3 combinations, such as 4,2,0 or 8,5,6.
Of course, if you have a file with the 10 digits (from 0 to 9) in each line, all 1000 pick-3 combinations will be generated. You can download this sample file: RANGE3.10 with all 10 digits in each line. You can edit RANGE3.10 and keep only the digits you want to appear in each position. Save the file as RANGE3, since it is the default input.
Select the positional ranges with the help of the statistical function in UTIL332.exe. The report (FREQ3) shows the frequency and skips by position as well.
Version 9.0, May 2002 (2 WE), 32-bit DOS software.
UTIL332.exe is not compressed (zipped) and you can run it directly.
PARSEL.exe, lottery software and lotto software is the first program that corrects most errors in lottery draw files. It handles lotto-5, lotto-6, lotto-7, PowerBall '5+1', PowerBall '6+1', and horseracing.
The program makes sure that the lottery draws files comply with the LotWon requirements. For example, a lotto 6/49 data file must have exactly 6 unique numbers per line; every number must be in the range 1 to 49; the file must not have any blank lines. The program does not change the data files; rather, it creates a log file listing all erroneous lines and the specific problems.
One type of problem cannot be trapped by the lotto software: typos within the correct range. For example, the user typed 13 when the 'real' number was 23. Only an attentive human can correct that!
Version 1.0, April 2002 (2 WE), 32-bit DOS software.
The program is not compressed (zipped) and you can run it directly.
The improved version formats also the pick-3, pick-4 and horseracing data files.
The application can catch some errors in your data files: empty lines or too few entries per line (e.g. 5 or 4 numbers per draw, instead of EXACTLY 6 for lotto-6). The program will backup the original data files before sorting them.
You need to download the batch file COPIER.BAT as it is required by SORTING.EXE to create a .BAK file of the original.
Version10.0, July 2002 (2 WE), 32-bit DOS software.
SORTING.EXE is not compressed (zipped) and you can run it directly.
The program has another nice feature. It can take a lottery data file and add-up each draw. The user can see the streaks of the sum-totals. Be sure to save the sum file under a different name in order to preserve the original data file!
Finally, the application creates summary reports for the game: every sum-total and its amount of combinations.
