Hya everybody!!!

I have been reading a book on lottery analysis and I have decided to have a go and try myself. My idea is to make a sysdicate where loads of people will put money down and share the winnings.

First of all I need to do all my analysis and the only problem is that I dont know where to start. I have downloaded all the draw results from the national lottery website and I have those results into a Microsoft Access Table.

The data looks like this:

DrawDate | Ball 1 | Ball 2 | Ball 3 | Ball 4 | Ball 5 | Ball 6 |Bonus Ball
20/04/2004 | 15 | 23 | 34 | 31 | 21 | 13 | 49

Now I need to start writing my php code/functions etc.

The first one would be called (Chase Hit Chart):

- This chart will analyse all the numbers from the previous draw and check what number are more likely to come up again for the next draw.

The code would analyse the following:

It would count how many times each number had a hit, two hits in a row, 3 hits in a row etc....

Example:

Number | 1 Hit | 2 Hits | 3 Hits | 4 Hits | Average
01 | 135 | 13 | 6 | 1 | 7.2


Could any one give me an idea in how to write that function, or a starting point in what to do next. I will be doing more functions later one. Any help would be much appreciated...

Thank you again!!!
