The Summary of Number Frequency by Rank above organizes lottery numbers based on how often they have been drawn, grouping them into tiers or ranks according to their frequencies. Numbers with the highest frequencies are placed in the top rank, indicating they have been drawn most often and may be considered "hot" numbers. Subsequent ranks include numbers with gradually lower frequencies, offering a clear comparison of how commonly each number appears.
Percentile rank shows the relative position of a number’s frequency compared to all others. It answers the question “What percentage of numbers were drawn less frequently than this one?”. Using the percentile rank you can compare easily by normalizing frequencies on a 0–100 scale, visualizes hot/cold numbers: You can chart numbers into low, mid, and high percentiles.
This ranking system helps highlight patterns in number occurrences, making it easier to identify which numbers are most frequent, moderately drawn, or rarely drawn. It provides a useful overview for players looking to base their number selections on historical draw performance.
Format Changes in Illinois Lotto
The Illinois Lotto has undergone several format changes below since its launch to enhance gameplay:
| Period | Format | Extra Shot |
|---|---|---|
| February 19, 1983 | 6/40 | None |
| May 13, 1984 | 6/44 | None |
| April 15, 1990 | 6/54 | None |
| October 28, 1998 | 6/52 | None |
| November 4, 2012 | 6/52 | 1/25 |
| September 2021 | 6/50 | 1/25 |
How Illinois Lotto Format Changes Affect Your Number Strategy.
The format changes have a direct impact on statistical analysis. Mixing frequency data across different formats is not advisable because each version of the game has a different number pool and probability structure.
For example, a number that appeared frequently in the 6/50 format may have done so due to higher individual draw probability, but that same frequency can be misleading in the 6/52 and 6/54 format.
Therefore, for meaningful analysis, it’s essential to treat each format as its own distinct dataset. Analyzing trends or frequencies should be restricted to results from within the same format period, especially if the goal is to inform number selection in the current game structure.
