Machine Bias (Chi-Squared)

Significant deviation

The observed numbers deviate from a fair, uniform machine more than chance predicts.

χ² statistic
1,058.0
Degrees of freedom
68
p-value
< 0.0001
Expected / number
153.4

A low p-value means the deviation is unlikely to be pure chance. Note: games whose number range changed over the years can show apparent bias for that reason alone. Past results never predict future draws.

Sum of numbers

Most draws sum near 182 (range 60–312).
