I have calculated the least drawn numbers in the past year (1 through 43 are possible numbers). I have concluded that I will play the following numbers, over and over again: 09 24 30 37 43

I simply copy/pasted the entire table into a text file called lotto.

grep "[0-9][0-9] [0-9][0-9]" lotto

This gave me a nice list of all the numbers, like so:

01 08 10 19 40
11 20 24 29 42
07 14 17 20 36
02 04 06 26 34
12 13 20 26 38
07 27 32 34 36
…

#!/bin/bash
for i in $(seq -w 1 43) ; do
echo "$i occurred:" $(grep -c $i lottoformat) >> lottolist
done

This gives me a list like so.
