A WORD
FROM
THE
AUTHOR
I would like to mention that I do not promote any particular
lottery and am not connected to any of the existing lotteries. This book
came as a result of long years of experience in creating
and improving lottery systems. I have worked as a freelance
writer for
a number of lottery publications in
Europe
and North America, and I have spent many years in research in Combinatorics,
an area of Mathematics, that among other things deals with combinatorial
lottery systems (or coverings, as they call them in Combinatorics).
I hold a M.Sc. and Ph.D. in Mathematics and work as a university
professor. All of my publications, including both my master's
thesis and doctoral dissertation, are related to lottery systems. The objects
in this book originate from the most
recent research in the area, and are based on my expert
knowledge of the subject. That is why this book
has no match among the publications
and software in existence. I hope you will appreciate the qualities
of this fine book and enjoy playing with the
lottery systems.
I wish you the best of luck!
Finally, I would appreciate any feedback from my successful readers and
users of lottery systems. Please write about
your
experience with the lottery systems, especially if you hit it
big! Your stories could provide useful input for further
improvements of this book. You can
