Selecting Lottery Numbers by...
CAR NUMBERS
Car numbers can be used as random numbers for entry to The Lottery. But as they are in the range 1-999 rather than 1-49 they
have to be scaled, however. This is easy. Just multiply each of
the numbers by 0.049049, add 1 and take the number before the
decimal point. This takes them from being in the range 1-999 into
the range 1-49.
Note: Your chance of winning is very slightly lower if you choose
numbers from expensive cars that you'd choose to buy if you won,
so for preference choose numbers from the shabbiest looking cars
you can find!
The reason for this is not because of any magical effect, but
simply because shabby cars are less likely to have cherished
registration plates with numbers biassed to the low end of the
scale!
